I thought I had a while before this lovely stage...
Lately Eliza has been asking "why?" a lot. And not just in the appropriate toddler-learning-to-talk way either. Here's an example: "Eliza, no no. You can't put more salt on your fruit salad." "Why?" she replies! And then the hard part is actually trying to come up with a valid reason that can be deciphered by a 19 month old. Yeah, the kid is 19 months.
When she continues to ask why for minutes at a time this is what Sawyer says, "Um, Eliza, you can't just ask 'why'. Humans don't just say 'why'. You have to say other things...not just ask 'why'". How does Eliza respond to this? "Why?"
Tonight for dinner Sawyer, Eliza and I had Arthur mac and cheese, corn on the cob and blueberries. Summer is here. Break open the trash bread, heirloom tomatoes and Duke's mayonaise. Summer is here. 4 more days of work for me. Summer is here.
