pill shmill

The jello was a bust and Dayssi can't seem to get herself to swallow a pill but, amazingly, she doesn't seem to mind having pieces of 6MP tablets dissolving in her mouth. We had cut them into quarters and as she took each piece into her mouth she would swallow whatever was with it but the pill wouldn't go down. When we asked "Is it gone?" she simply shook her head, nonplussed, and showed us the pill on her tongue. We started giving her spoonfuls of frozen cranberry juice concentrate to wash it down and eventually she exclaimed (hands up, big eyes) "It's gone!" But I would have to say that she ate, rather than swallowed, the pills. Anyway, she took them, no problem, and she seemed proud of herself afterward. What a relief.
