Contrasts

[ricevermicelli]

On Wednesday morning, when we took Danger Lad! to daycare, a little girl rushed up to him. She lit up like a sunny day, gave an adorable flirt of her sundress, and said hi. Danger Lad! burrowed into my neck, saying "I scared Jenaya, Mommy!"

This morning, I brought out the Batman shirt I bought for DL! a week or so ago. He was delighted to see it. He held it and cuddled it, and then held it out away from him for a scold. "No flyin', Batman! Uh-uh. I don't sink so!"

Jenaya, age 2.5 = a highly finished and alarming piece of nature, from which he must be protected.
Batman = yelled at and sent to sit in the corner.

Also, I have boots in the mudroom. Film at eleven.

I believe this child is prescient.

I have always said DL! was wise beyond his months.

Perhaps he can also explain what "boots in the mudroom" might be code for....

Obviously, it is easier to effectively berate Batman than it is to do so to his cousin.

Which might also explain his fear of Jenaya, actually.

Hattie spent the afternoon riding her sister like a pony.

How about those boots?

I miss the fountain of cute

He sounds thoroughly adorable, still.
