"I'm a grown up!

This afternoon, Arya came up to me and said the funniest thing. I'll recount the conversation for you. It went something like this...

Arya: Mommy, I'm a grown up!
Me: Really?
Arya: Yes. I'm a grown up. Grown ups like mints. I like mints. I'm a grown up! (Arya was handing me the container of mints that she had found in my purse.)
Me: Wow. Aren't those mints a little hot for you?
Arya: No. I like mints.
Me: Do you want to try one?
Arya: YES!!
Me: Okay, but I think it will be too hot for you.
(Arya then puts the mint in her mouth.)
Arya: HOT!!! I'm not a grown up.
(She spits out the mint and gives it to me at this point, which is followed by her begging to try it again about 5 seconds later, and then going back and forth about whether or not she likes mints or they're too hot until she has eaten the whole thing.)

So funny!
