her rationale …
She’s started rationalising why she does or doesn’t want to do things … why she was mischievous, why she got cross, why she was happy … really just WHY?
me: “it’s time for a snooze now”
small person: “no Mama, I can’t sleep now, my legs have got too much wiggles in them. Look!!”
–
me: “it’s bedtime now bunny”
small person: “I don’t think I finished today already”
–
me: “do you need a poo?”
small person: “hmmm no, there isn’t any poo in my tummy”
–
me: “shall we brush your hair now”
small person: “no cos I’m just beautiful as I am”
me: “yes, but it’s a good idea to brush your hair so it doesn’t get5 all snaggly”
small person: “I think today is snaggle day, I will wear them”
–
me: “are you going to do a wee before we go out?”
small person: “it’s not got down there yet”
–
me: “why did you just hit me?”
small person: “because you’re my Mama and I love you!”
–
me: “could you please bring me my dress”
small person: “no”
me: “why not? I need to wear it to go to a meeting this morning”
small person: “it’s not red and my shoes are red so you must wear a red dress today”
–
me: “why were you grumpy with your friend?”
small person: “because my hair is sparkly today”
–
me: “we’ve got pasta pesto for supper”
small person: “it’s my favourite because I’m three”
–
me: “why did you do that?”
small person: “because I did”
and so on and so forth bless her : )
