Sugar and Spice?

I thought it was boys that were supposed to eat the glue and dirt and stuff. Ava has developed this annoying obsession with shoveling a handful of dirt from a particular potted plant into her mouth. She'll do it several times a day if I'm not vigilant in keeping her away from it. I refuse to move it--she needs to learn what not to touch/eat. Aiden never touched a plant when he was that age. But Ava is much more reckless, fearless, uninhibited, dirt-loving--whatever you'd like to call it. I call her crazy. When she's eating dirt. Or dirty girl. Or Miss Piggy. Otherwise, she's snow white, baby girl, or pretty baby :) But those just don't fit when she's chowing down on some good, black potting soil.
