Usually, when we’re tucking Seth in, he expresses his toddler OCD with the same repetitive night-time chant: “When I wake up I want tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and breakfast.” Occasionally, he’ll also add on something else special to him, like "and my new toy from Thiego's party" or “canpakes.”
Last night, we had solid proof that he’s actively racing the 9-year-old to teen-dom. Here’s what came out:
“When I wake up I want tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money, and more tiny money. And a credit card.”
Cute!
ReplyDeleteI am curious why he wants tiny money. Is it a song?
Valerie--it's the European centavos, which are really small and light. He loves playing with them, and early on started asking for them. The repetition at night-night time -- we're not sure why that got instituted, except that there's an older sibling who does the same.
