Conversations with my almost 2 year old Autumn

“Good morning Mommy. Look at me – I’m Autumn.” Autumn says.

“Good Morning Autumn. What to come out of the crib and play.” I ask.

“Want to come out. (Begins to jump up and down frantically) I want my friend (as she grabs her purple elephant) and Elmo and Cat and Coon (that would be her new raccoon toy.)

“Should we get you dressed?” I say

“No, no, I want to play 'go sleepy!'” (This is when she climbs into my bed and snuggles under the covers and pretends to sleep.)

“Want to go see daddy and Ronin downstairs?” I ask

“Yes! I love Ronin. Want to play.”
