Defiance
July 9th, 2009 | by sophie |Tidbit of conversation to show how defiant our soon-to-be 2-year-old is becoming:
- No, Baby, you cannot play with that, I say as I place (the phone, a kitchen knife, my friend’s iPod - it must have happened a 100 times with 100 different things) higher, thinking it’s now out of reach.
He extends further and grabs it, or gets a step stool, or climbs in another way to reach it.
- No, Baby, I said no, I say while prying the contentious item from his gripping hands.
- Baby sais yes!, he replies with a frown while tightening his grip.
I have to say, it’s hard to keep your cool under these conditions! I know, it’s just the beginning!
