Honey Bear

Owen was a bit sick earlier in the week with a runny nose and cough.  We give the boys homeopathic, honey-based medicine when they have these symptoms to help relieve the cough and soothe their throats...and so they've come to know any type of liquid medicine as "honey bear".  This even goes for Children's liquid Tylenol...I guess it also has a sweet honey-like taste.  They go crazy for the stuff and think it's some kind of treat.  Oliver hasn't shown any sign of being sick yet, but certainly has been distraught over not getting any honey bear!  I was taking a short video of the boys playing with one of their puzzles on Friday when Oliver spotted the bottle up on the kitchen counter and launched into his "can I have some honey bear" routine (he's very sweet in this video, but don't be fooled - denial of his request typically ends in crying and sometimes screaming).  However, I thought it was funny how Owen authoritatively tells him, "Oliver you're not sick, Owen's sick."  Also - isn't it cute how Oliver says good morning Wesley (and also good afternoon, which he's learning to say after nap time)!
