Hi. I'm 2.
Me: Lucy, do you want me to take your shoes off?
Lucy: NnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnO!
The expression that accompanied her firm answer was similar to a look one might give to a person who was asking for one’s social security number in order to use the sidewalk… confused, annoyed, offended, angry…
Me: You say “No thank you”, Lucy.
Immediately, she began to shake her foot wildly, screeching and howling. I know that shake. It’s the “I want my shoe off” shake. Hmmm, she said “No” before, but dare I ask again?
Me: Do you want your shoes off?
As quickly as they emerged, the horns retracted.
Lucy: Shoe offfff. Gock (sock) offfff.
I give.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA! Yes, I know those conversations. Selby and I have them ALL the time. She does say “No, thank you,” but in a pissy little bark that is SO funny now. It’s going to be WAY les funny in a couple of years
LOL! Oh they are so frustrating sometimes! I have a LOT of “I’m 3″ moments with my son. As much as I really try not to wish away my time with them, I’m hoping the “I’m 4″ moments are a little more tolerable!
So the more I think about this, the more I realize Lucy and Selby are soul sisters. I’m telling Art we must move to Washington immediately.
