Look at that face! You would never guess that she has added a dreaded phrase to her vocabulary - DON'T. Spoken with verve and attitude! I have been trying to help Kate replace the phrase with a less harsh alternative: No, thank you. I was wondering if it was even permeating that toddler brain of hers when we were sitting on the bed the other day together. I was trying to finish a business email and Kate was pestering me with a question in only the way a sweet toddler can - asking over and over and over and over again until she gets the response she is looking for. I turned to her and said "Chill out honey 'til Momma is finished" - to which she promptly replied "No, thank you!". Well, it's a step.
