Gum

For quite a while, Jack has been asking me about gum.  "Can I have some? What's in your mouth? What does it taste like?"  Etc... 

I kept telling him that when he was three he could try it. Well, that day has now come and I finally gave in.   I started with a tiny piece to see how long he could keep it in his mouth without swallowing it. After a few minutes of keeping it in there, I gave him a little bit more until he finally had the whole piece. 20 minutes later he still had the whole thing in his mouth and didn't spit it out until time to brush his teeth.  

Here's a bit of our conversation:

Do you like it? Yes, because I can eat gum all day long

Does it taste normal or weird? weird 

What does it taste like? Cotton candy

How does it feel? Like a pancake and covers

Do you think you'll chew gum anymore? And when? Yes, When I'm a little bit older.. like your size.

Checking it out in the mirror..

I don't really see him being a gum-chewer, but he was so excited to finally try it.
