Extremes

Lucy can be the sweetest child at times. Yesterday as I made her lunch--her favorite: a peanut butter and jelly sandwich--she looked up at me with her head tilted to the side and said very tenderly, "THANK you, Mommy honey. You are so KIND!" LOL! She can also be a stinker at times, but still cracks me up. She has a familiar way of refusing things, delivered in an imperious almost offended tone: "No, no! No pick up toys! No!" or "No, no! No go to bed! No!" or "No, no! No go boom booms (our euphemism for poops!). No!" We all joke that if we had a parakeet, we know what he'd be saying!
