My two-year-old was a very good girl on a road trip with my mother and me recently, so I told her that I would buy her a treat. She ran up to the scented candles and picked up a large one.
Daughter: “I want. I sleep with.”
Mother: “I don’t think that’s a good idea, hun. We don’t want any fire in your room while you’re sleeping.”
Me: “Hey, Mom, I think we’ll be okay.”
Mother: “You can’t have a live candle in her room while she’s sleeping with no supervision!”
Me: “When she says she will sleep with them, she means to sleep in the bed with them, like a stuffed animal.”
Mother: “Oh…”
That was when my mom realized that her two-year-old granddaughter has precisely zero stuffed animals or dolls in her bed — but about a dozen Yankee candles.
