Bubble gum for Breakfast

A 2.66 yr old sure has funny ideas about what is good for breakfast, BUT sometimes you let them decide. Back story: Tuesday we started heavy with toilet training and yesterday (Thursday) morning I told Cassidy that if she went on toilet all day she could have ice cream. Well, that motivated her, and she did it! Unfortunately, she passed out on our bedroom floor before we could get the ice cream. I slipped on a diaper and put her in bed. Well, at 4 am, Cassidy came in and woke us up, she told Daddy she had to go and they went to toilet and she went back to bed. If that's not amazing enough, at wake-up time we were all talking in bed, when Cassidy took off out of room. I heard the lid of the toilet go up. Pick up your jaws! Yes, she figured she had to go, and went in got on the toilet all by herself. So this morning we said, "What do you want for breakfast? You can have whatever you want." "Gum! Bubble Gum!!" Cassidy had a nice piece of sugar-free wintergreen for breakfast!
