Although it was a rerun, I knew it would be new to someone, and I'm so happy to hear that it arrived on the right day. :)Karen Edmisten https://www.blogger.com/profile/04446214835142625161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17019672.post-16787650940035834892009-10-25T10:09:02.513-05:002009-10-25T10:09:02.513-05:00LOL, the "the sluggish tongue". I have ...LOL, the "the sluggish tongue". I have a three-and-a-half year old girl and a two year old boy, and that is EXACTLY how I am feeling trying to remind Catie when her Mary-quite-contrary thing crosses the line....60 times a day...without being rude to her or having my head explode. My tongue has just been seizing up lately because the only sound that seems as if it would come naturally is "bwaaahhhhhhhhhh-boo-hoo." :-)<br /><br />But she does have some REALLY cute pigtails, and her reading of "the little ca-erpillar ate ONE pieth of chocowat cake, ONE ithe cweam cone, ONE pieth of wiss cheese..." is just to die for.<br /><br />You are right, though, I don't need them to get bigger yet, I just need to remember that they will trade their challenges in for new ones as they age...they won't just keep ADDING ON to these ones. Sometimes I feel that way, and those are the days that I want to run away now, before it gets any worse! :-)TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18114855102842020691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17019672.post-89999988232678368012009-10-24T17:04:57.553-05:002009-10-24T17:04:57.553-05:00I know it's not possible that you wrote this b...I know it's not possible that you wrote this blog post just for me and for this particular week/day/moment I'm in...but it sure feels like it.
