Ten more minutes.



Lately, when I've announced the end of some activity with the now routine "Ten more minutes until nap time", and I get a little response from Miranda and Elizabeth. Miranda holds up one finger and Elizabeth holds up all ten. Even if I said 5 minutes or 3 minutes or 8 minutes, I get 1 finger from Miranda and ten from Elizabeth. Cute, but not so bright. By this age, Parker was counting to 10 in three languages...ok, maybe that is a slight exaggeration. But only slight.

Hmmm, as I recall, Parker at this age had enjoyed the undivided attention of both his parents for his entire life, maybe that explains the difference, ya think?

yeah, but life as he knew it ended one month later...
