My 2 yr old's secret to help me quit cigarettes

My two year old was still on bottles until a couple weeks ago.  I tried to take the bottles away and she was not having it.  LOTS OF SCREAMING!!!  She would use the cup if she spent the weekend at her sister's house but when she came home she wanted those bottles.  So 2 weekends ago we were in Big Lots and she saw a Dora the Explorer cup and she wanted it.  I told her if she wanted me to buy it, that meant NO MORE BOTTLES.  She agreed (did not believe her but bought the cup anyway).  We got home and she was drinking out of the cup all night.  Bedtime came and she asked for the bottle.  I explained that she promised the Dora cup and no more bottles and she accepted and went to sleep.

So last night I was sitting on one end of the sofa and she was on the other and I was just playing with her not expecting her to understand me and I said "Lexi, I am having a hard time kicking this cigarette habit.  How did you kick the bottles?  What is your secret?  She turned to me and said "Fries - I eat them."  Lmao.  She had me laughing and I swear, I think she knows what I was talking about.  I just wanted to share with everyone!!!  Hope you enjoyed it.
