t waves weakly from desk, surrounded by papers
I should be working. I've already taught two classes and have one more to go and a ton of grading, parent emails, and various bureaucratic paperwork to complete.
Donwanna. Want cuddly blanket and nap.
Zoe: We're getting him back. Jayne: What are we gonna do, clone him?

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I'll give her a few weeks before I really worry about it
Try not to worry about it even if it takes her longer than a few weeks. Lord knows it takes me more than a few weeks to get acclimated to a completely new situation, and I've got 31 years of life experience to draw on.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I had THE most inept cashier ever.
No, I did. She was strung out on smack, and it took forever, but she managed to miss swiping half my groceries so I got about $100 worth of groceries for $40 dollars. She was utterly dumbstruck trying to bag them so I relieved her of that duty before the manager noticed.
Susan, I'll just add my voice to the chorus of "that's normal" for that age. Kids don't like to share, really. And behaviorally we don't expect them to get the sharing concept down until they're a little older.

But not by, say, age 34, right? Years?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

No. We're going to make you stand outside.

Also? Adult standards of what constitutes bad behavior don't apply to toddlers, and won't apply until Annabel learns to differentiate right from wrong, which usually doesn't happen until they're 4 or 5. Until then, it's all about distracting them from causing any harm and praising them when they do something good.

Only if you can beat me at hand-to-hand combat.
