It's the little things.

No one does happy like a toddler.

 

This morning I thrilled a little person by giving her a snack (a single dry cracker) and allowing her to sit on a big girl (adult) chair to eat it. There is nothing exciting about any of that but she was so excited, about the novelty of a snack and the chance to sit somewhere she's not usually allowed.

 

Then this afternoon, small madam and I have shared a can of lemonade and by shared I mean she's had a dribble from my can in a tiny cup. That combined with being allowed all the watering cans to play with (filled) has been heaven.  Again, nothing particularly special but she's acting like today is her birthday and Christmas all rolled into one!

It's like the opposite of your new book!

Eh, 5 minutes after the lemonade we had a strop because I wasn't holding the umbrella properly. I wasn't aware holding it above your head could be wrong, but there we go!

>allowed all the watering cans to play with
Dual-wielding watering cans = *utter approve*

She had 3 of them... It was a very splashy kind of play!
