I say No, No, No

Saturday, July 26, 2008

What is it about toddlers that their favorite word is No? Ne, ne, ne all day long. Do you want a drink? Ne (accompanied by a head shake and wave of the hand, then proceeding to down several ounces of water). Do you want to go to the pool? Ne. (Immediately followed by running to the door saying Poo, Poo, Poo.) If they don't really understand what it means, why on earth do they say it so much? And how do they know the correct body language in order to be so dismissive? I can't combat that.
