You know what's weird?
Kids. Kids are the weirdest little weirdos I've ever met.
My daughter hides food in her high chair. She appears to be eating it, every time I look over at her, she's eating...but then when I clean up her chair at the end of the day, there's always somehow pieces of crackers and cereal and fruit snacks and occasionally bits of fruit or sandwich tucked underneath the cover on the chair. She's not dropping it, because that couldn't get it between the chair and the cover. Is she storing it for later? Hiding it because I've given her too much? Conducting Top Secret Experiments on the food...or on ME?
My son jumps. All. The. Time. Basically, if he's standing up, he's jumping. Like he's got springs in his feet and he can't help it. And then sometimes I find him sitting on the floor in his bedroom by the changing table, talking to one of the cats who likes to lay on the bottom shelf, and when I ask what he's doing..."I'm teaching Zelda how to talk, Mom." Like...DUH, that's obvious, isn't it?
My daughter yells...just to hear her own voice, I think. Right now, she's sitting on the floor, holding a measuring cup and waving it around, and yelling "DAAAAGOOOOO dago, DAAAAAGO baggooooo EGGOOOOOOOOO EGGO EGGO". Oh, but now she's stopped, stood up, run over to the front door, and is just standing there staring around. Maybe she's forgotten why she went in there. Maybe she's just like her mother.
I wish I could say I don't know where they get it...but my mom told me once that when I was around two or three years old, I would get a sheet of paper, put it on the floor, and then push it around with my forehead.
Yeah...kids. Weirdos.
