ABC's Say

I would like to think it's because of my diligent time and effort spent emphasizing education, but actually, largely due to TV shows like Sesame Street, Brianna has become aware of the alphabet and letters. Whenever she sees writing she points and says "ABC's, ABC's Mom!" Then we say "Yep, sure enough," or something of that nature. Well, today Bree noticed that there were "ABC's" on her tube of diaper cream. She pointed this out to her daddy and he told her that those ABC's said "diaper cream." (Although, actually they said more like A&D Diaper Ointment.) Then Bree noticed more ABC's on the shampoo bottle. Daddy told her they said "shampoo" (All right, it was actually conditioner and it didn't even say that on the front of the bottle either.) After the shampoo Brianna found ABC's on the toothpaste. Daddy said those ABC's say "toothpaste" (translation: Colgate). After that Bree handed me the tube of toothpaste, then pointed at it solemnly and told me, "ABC's say 'Brush your teeth!'"
