Today Olivia and I were on our usual morning walk, when she happened to notice a group of women walking towards us. As they got within ten feet of us, Olivia, in the sweetest voice she could possibly manage to break out, looked up at them and said "Hallow" (hello). I wouldn't be surprised if she was batting her eyelashes at the same time. This little girl of mine knows how to get someones attention when she wants it. Well, to her dismay, none of the ladies walking by paid any attention to her. I guess she decided the sweetness just wasn't doing the trick so just as they passed her in the stroller she screamed at the top of her lungs: "HALLLOOWW"!! I think that did it.
A few hours later. . .
Home from the walk now, and just playing and cleaning up the house. I realize Olivia needs a diaper change. When I inform Olivia of the issue and ask her to come to me so that I can take care of the problem, she gives me a coy smile and of coarse takes off running in the opposite direction. This is a very normal, everyday occurance.
The funny part was when I started to pursue her she ran even faster, began flailing her arms in the air, and started yelling "Hep me. Hep me!!" (Help me Help me). As if some friendly, nearby nieghbor was going to save her from the aweful villan of a mom who was trying to change her child's diaper. I was laughing histerically.
