Uh oh. I think I've just influenced the little niece to drink really cold water.
Like many tots, she's not fond of tepid water. She gets forced to drink it anyway. But she's getting really good at squirming off.
She was grouchy and said no to her bottle of water. I clinked my glass of ice water at her. The ice cubes made musical sounds that caught her attention. She was most interested in it. She stretched out a hand to touch the condensation on the cold glass. Then I touched the glass to her lips.
She licked the edge of the glass and then gulped the ice cold water! She grinned at me and willingly drank a couple more sips. I'd think that cold water, for some reason, is a lot tastier than warm water. Heh. I don't drink tepid water either!

plenty people out here got this thing against ice cold water. never understood it myself.
sinlady: i don't know why either. i love cold water. i drink it everyday, all the time. hasn't hurt anything. our family's not into even the one month confinement thingy for pregnant women. unless one is recovering from a C-section. (unless it's freezing cold, then i'll go look for hot water to warm the tummy!)
This sweetheart is such a cutie!
I don't like cold water unless it is a hot day. I have cold hands and feet and cold water makes it worse. Room temperature water - no problem! I drink 4 litres every day.
Oh my... if I were her mommy, I'd be really mad at you. LOL!
eveline: she is cute! sometimes i like hot water in the freezing office.
diva: hehe.
