- When Rosie, my 2-year-old, wants to read "Guess How Much I Love You," she does not even try to say the title. She tries to ask to read "Nutbrown Hare." But it comes out like this: "Mommy, wead Bwown Haven?" I love it. Brown Haven.
- Rosie is the type to wake up as the little butterfly that she is, and immediately start socializing. My 1-year-old, Piper, on the other hand...well. She wakes up and, after her initial ear-piercing shrieks to let us know she's ready to be retrieved from her room...she goes silent. Until after she's had several cups of juice and breakfast. She will smile and be happy to see us...but only Daddy rates any squeals before breakfast. The only word she will say before breakfast is "Uh-oh," and this is only employed if she drops her baby doll or her pacifier. No words, no games, no giggles - until after breakfast. A girl's gotta have some priorities.
- Note: Rosie and Piper are not their real names. I've changed them for privacy's sake. But I liked the idea of doing bird names for our kiddos on the blog, so Rosie and Piper are short for "Rosefinch" and "Sandpiper." And they really fit the personalities surprisingly well. ;)
