When Addy was about 18months old, we were driving in the car and she had a messy face from eating something. I handed her a wet wipe and asked her if she could 'wipe her mouth'. She somewhat reluctantly took the wipe from my hand. I figured she was old enough to start doing it on her own and turned back around. I turned around about 30 seconds later to see if she had wiped all the food off. I felt so bad when I saw my little girl with a disgusted and hurt look in her eyes as she stared back at me as she was wiping her tongue. (She was wiping her mouth out!)
It makes me smile at how simply kids look at the world. I also forget how literal and serious they take all the words we say to them.
The picture below is funny. I asked Addy if she could use my new vacuum/broom we call, Ergo and vacuum 'underneath' the table. So she did!
