Here's to maintaining some self-respect and sanity while tending to the growth and maturation of young minds, including your own young mind. Here's to recognizing that it isn't necessary to know how everything is going to turn out in advance, and that often Life has much better in store than one can imagine. Here's to hope and happiness even when Life gets complicated, especially then... That's when it's needed it most.

Funny!
It's amazing to me that a two year old could have such a great sense of humor, but there's no denying that A's got it. She giggles and laughs and all day long, punctuating her comments with "Funny!" I love it. It is so beyond what I expected of her. I'm very accustomed to two year olds talking about their world, the things they see or need. What A seems most pleased to express is what she thinks about things. I've mentioned before that she has opinions. This just points to her expanding ability to let others know what the opinions are.
She absolutely adores dogs, and they are always "Funny!" Sometimes, things on PBS are "Funny!" She loves being tossed into the air by the big people in her life. That's "Fun!" which is her second favorite designation. She often declares her siblings to be "Fun!" She loves their attention and playing games with them, as long as they aren't too rough. She's tough, though - it consistently surprises me how long she can hang in with the bigger kids. I mean, she hits the four year old at his armpits, and he still seems small to me. She chases and runs away with the best of them. She loves to fall into a pile of giggling children, and I bet you know what she'd be saying. . ."Fun!"
