To al the Parents and Grandparents out there !!!!
E-mail from a fellow parent.

I gave my toddler, a little Tea Set as for her birthday, and it is one of her favorite toys.
Her Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news when she brought him a little cup of "tea" which was just water, of course.
After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my hasband called for me to come watch.
My husband made me wait in the living room to watch his little Princess bring him a cup of tea, because it was, "Just the cutest thing!"
I waited, and sure enough, here she come down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy.
I watch him drink it up and then I ask, "Did it ever occur to you that the only place that a toddler can reach to get water is the toilet

So, be careful and smell before you drink.

I was laughing so hard when I read this, I just about fell off my chair!

This is really bad, but my kids had this really quaint tea set that old autie Ruth had sent to them (both boys) we used it a lot at Christmas, but usually it was apple juice or actual tea, sugar and cream. When they out grew it ( 3 years old) we sent it to my nephews kids (they live in arizona). Anyhoo, we get word that this little china tea set is a big hit with all his kids (he has four). Trouble is, the kids were collecting "tea" from all sorts of places - use your imagination (anywhere from the dog bowl, pool, ****** as mentioned earlier, and the gutter, all displayed so sweetly in the lovely quaint tea set from old auntie Ruth.
Moral of the story: always fling that tea cup over your left shoulder unless you know exactly where that "tea" came from.
