Jessica has been playing in almost every room this morning and I’m just getting some busy work done along with following her and playing with her, too.
Just now I was sitting at the kitchen table looking up some recipes and Jessica saunters down the hall to our bedroom – which she’s allowed to play in, there are just a few things she can’t touch. It got really quiet so I went to check on her and she’s grabbing at some photos she’s not allowed to touch. I tell her no and wait for her to retract her hand.
Not only does she retract her hand, she comes to the door – acting like she’s going to come out of the room and play somewhere else, but instead – she does a faky and turns to shut the door, ON ME! As she’s doing this, she’s eyeing the no-touch photos and then looking back at me through a sliver of open door. As if to say “Ha, if you can’t see me, then of course I’m allowed to touch whatever I want. Na na nana boo boo.”
