Toddler's Creed

Audrey had a slumber party this weekend with just one little girl as her guest. Our friends,  The Hannahan's , came up for a conference and stayed with us. It was a lot of fun watching the girl's play. Ellie is two weeks younger than Audrey so they had lots of things in common. I think the following poem sums up the weekend...

Toddler's Creed

by T. Berry Brazelton.

If I want it, it's mine.

If I give it to you, and change my mind later, it's mine.

If I can take it away from you, it's mine.

If I had it a little while ago, it's mine.

If it's mine, it will never belong to anybody else, no matter what.

If we are building something together, all the pieces are mine.

If it looks just like mine, it is mine.

We enjoyed having the Hannahan's stay with us-- we especially enjoyed the good food they brought with them! Audrey now has a new favorite food-- Turkish Apricots!?!?!
