Smart Cookie with a Hairdo

Since the girl only minimally tolerates barrettes, this is my latest 'do' to keep her bangs out of her eyes.

Conversation with my big talker 20-month-old today:

Mary climbs little wooden play kitchen in attempt to get onto the counter.

Mama: "Mary, don't climb that."

Mary: "Why?"

Mama: "Because it is dangerous."

Mary: "I bonk?"

Mama: "Yes, you could get a bonk."

Mary: "You sad?"

Mama: "Yes, I'd be sad if you got a bonk."

Mary: "Okay." (climbs down)

And for those who have been following the saga: I think we're nicely back on track with Mary's potty training. She was what I'd consider "trained" for a month, then had a week of full rebellion about it (who knows why), and then we began working back gradually. She's doing well with it now. Yay!
