I was keeping my little two-year-old grandson, Collier, while his sister (Emmy) was in the hospital having surgery. He taught me a few things…
1. Interestingly enough, the guest room bed is much more comfortable than my own (note taken). 2. Hiding under a table while screaming to the top of your lungs is sometimes called for and you will feel refreshed and renewed when you finally come out. 3. Choc-ey milk is the answer to all of life’s problems (such as missing mommy)! 4. Running around in your undies (or diaper in this case) is preferable to the confines of clothing and doggie kisses are a must just to give you a giggle. 5. When necessary, go incognito. 6. If tired, go for a nice ride in the car, take a little light reading along, then take a nap while someone drives you around and start the day over feeling rested. 7. Play to your hearts content with no concern for messes or clean up. 8. Sleep with every toy and stuffed animal in the house cuddled in nice and close. 9. Eat snacks galore with not a worry for calories or cavities. 10. Take a nap at the request of others (or in this case, just fall asleep while sitting up and while eating said snack). It is amazing the little things you can pickup from a knowledgable two year old!
