“Can you tie this to my eyebrow?” [referring to a balloon] After throwing a blanket over her own head: “POOF! She was gone.” 3-yr old: “You can’t tell me that!” 2-yr old: “Why?” 3-yr old: “You’re not a grown-up!” 2-yr old: “YES I AM!” 3-yr old: “NO YOU’RE NOT!” 2-yr old: “YES I AM!” 3-yr old: “YOU’RE NOT A GROWN-UP; YOU’RE IN A BOOSTER SEAT!!” 2-yr old: “What?” 3-yr old: “You’re in a booster seat. . . . → Read More: Things overheard in my house lately Those who know me may assume my own daughter can also do this. She can’t. Yet. [kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/EBM854BTGL0" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /] Smart kid. The Players: Dad – in the upstairs office, working Mom – …indisposed 3-year old, aka “Little Mommy” – playing in playroom 2-year old, aka “Stinky” – playing in playroom So I’m sitting in my office, writing an email, the entire house quiet, when I hear Mom enter the playroom downstairs and stop short.
