Lauren has begun honing the fine art of sweet-talking and tugging on Daddy's heart strings. I thought it was quite sweet when she first came up to me and said "Hi...." and smiled. But just a few seconds later, she added her request...."Up!" I complied. :)She's now taken to using that request with great frequency, though she learned it's equally effective just to dispense with the small-talk and jump straight to handing out orders. "Up." "Up." "Up!"
Up is a word that we hear quite often around the Wheeler house. The garden across the street from our flat has a kiddy playground and Brooks can't get to the slide without some help... so it's UP, UP, UP! a thousand times an afternoon. And the word UP is usually what wakes us UP in the morning! Up, up, up, it's time to get up!! :)
