Does Your Child Like Juice?

My daughter loves juice.  Apple juice that is.  As a mother that tries to do the right thing while balancing a need to have a happy child I know I indulge her want of juice too often.  However, I am very good at watering down my daughter's juice.  And this is what I used to hear every time I did water down my daughter's juice,

"No Mommy. No water, no water, no water!"

She would whine and cry and then drink the juice and be OK with it.

Now, I don't get the crying or whining.  How?  I have two bottles of juice in my refrigerator.  I have one full strength and one that is watered down.  At first I would make the watered down version when my daughter wasn't watching.  Now, she is so used to the watered down version that I can water it down in front of her.  I call it making the juice.

You should give it a try if you have a small child at home that whines when you water down his or her juice.
