Cover your mouth when you cough!

Orange, our three and half year old, is a fantastic feedback giver.

Just yesterday, towards the end of dinner. I walked into the kitchen to wash some fruits for dessert. While washing, I coughed. And I hear a loud, little voice from my 3.5 year old:

Mama, cover your mouth when you cough!!

I wasn't in her view. How did she know? And it's true, I didn't cover my mouth when I coughed. And she's asking me to do exactly I have taught her. I'm getting more "feedback" these days. What a great way to learn about myself.

Haha indeed, they really teach us what we taught them.
