Gum will grow!

When I went to get 'S' up from her nap I did not notice till we got outside that she had some gum in her mouth.

So since we were outside, I instructed her that since she did not ask for the gum, to spit it out in the garden. She does.

A few minutes later she comes back to me and says, "Mom, my gum will grow now."

Me: Why do you think that? Because it's in the garden?

'S': YUP!

Me: okay
