In the past couple of weeks, Annalyn has learned how to be naughty. She's starting grunting and hitting when she gets mad, or when you don't do what she wants. (Or when you have the nerve -the Nerve! - to put your foot on the piano bench while she's playing her masterpiece.) She's decided that spitting is fun, and she's so determined that she won't stop no matter the discipline we hand out. She's even learned every parent's favorite word: NO.So now, more than ever, I treasure the quiet moments when she's my sweet baby again. Like last night when she actually sat still in my lap and let me read her a bedtime book.
I have a feeling that my feisty girl is going to test the boundaries, the limits, my patience for many years to come. But as long as I have can enjoy those sweet moments, I think we'll make it through.
