M&M

Ephram has a favorite candy.

It has become a great tool for bribery around here.

It will slowly melt in his mouth.

 It might not do any melting at all if he chews it up with a few chomps and then swallows it.

So he can open his mouth wide to show that its gone, and ask for another.

After awhile, his tongue will turn brown.

 It's true.  His favorite candy melts in his mouth, not in his hand.

But he, he melts my heart.
