and so it begins


"And so it begins" was Bret's response last night when, for the first time, Grant started asking "why?," only to be followed up with another "why," then another. A classic toddler conversation.

Another classic conversation happened on the way home from preschool when I opened one of Grant's valentines (since when have valentines had candy?) and let him eat some of the gummy bears. I told him "this is your last one," as he had already finished the rest, and his response was a classic move in toddler manipulation: "just one more" followed quickly but not too quickly with a "please." A classic trick that has worked on many a parent.

Oh, and don't ask why Grant's shirt has a skiing wolf. I bought it for a dollar at WalMart.
