Why Not?

Many toddlers go through the "why" stage. For us we've hit the "why not" stage.

So, yesterday Miss B. and I were in the car and she was accompanied in the back seat by her life-sized Ernie doll. Ernie's got on his usual horizontal striped shirt, crazy hair, jeans and shoes.

Miss B. states: "I want take off Ernie's Shoes!"

Me: "You can't take off Ernie's shoes."

Miss B.: "Why not?"

Me: "They're sewn on!"

Miss B.: "I need scissors."

Yes, she wanted to cut off Ernie's shoes. Clearly, she's a determined problem solver.
