Ana continues cute....
Sep. 26th, 2005 11:38 pmSo, today, she wanted me to come do something, and I'm being lazy and not getting up. Finally, she resorts to the big tactics: Using French. She holds up her fingers one at a time, counting off "an, deux, trois!" in French. Well, she's done that before, but this time she follows it up by clapping her hands and calling "Come here now! Now, please! C'mon!"
And if she's busy, and doesn't want to do what we want, it's "Patient, patient!" I really hate that, tell the truth. I don't mind it when she goes "In a minute" or "In a second", and I don't mind "wait", even though it's rude, but there's something highly grating at being scolded like a toddler by a toddler.
And then later... We're playing with her smallish toy kitchen.
Connie: *opens toy microwave door* Open!
Ana: *closes door* No, cose!
Connie: *opens* No, open!
Ana: *closes* No. Cose!
Connie: *halfway opens it, holds it like that*
Ana: *noticing that she can't properly see the fingers* Bye-bye fingas!
Connie: *moves hand out* Um...
Ana: NO! Bye-bye fingas!
Connie: Okay, bye-bye....
Ana: *sighs, takes fingers, kisses them, then hugs them and says "I love you!" to them, and sticks them back in the microwave* Cose door!
Connie: I kinda can't... oh, here, I'll half-close it.
Ana: Knock!
Fingers: *taptaptap*
Ana: Hi! *opens door*
Fingers: *wiggle*
Ana: How are you?
Fingers: Um... bye-bye... *hide behind Connie's back*
It was absolutely the cutest thing.
