Pushing the Limits

(... and other tales of the 3-year-old...)


At the babysitter's (Nannie's) today, The Boy wants to talk to me on the phone. "He wants to tell on me," Nannie stated matter-of-factly.

"I'm chewing gum," was The Boy's rather mumbled remark.

"What?! You goofy guy! You're not allowed gum!" He handed the phone back to his nannie.

"He's a trickster," I said to Nannie. "He knows he's not allowed gum."

"Oops!" she said.

We went to the zoo yesterday, our first time this year. I love it there. The Boy loves it there. With him so young and growing so fast and going through different developmental stages, it's always a new and different experience for him. And we usually end up having a great time.

But then, you turn your back for just a moment....
