Jenny despises getting her diaper changed and we are constantly trying to find ways around fighting her because of us usually ends up getting a heel to the throat and it's not pretty.
So I caught Jenny the other day reciting something that sounded like the Pledge and figured it was as good a distraction as any. Daddy was attempting to change a rather filty diaper (the product of carrots, her new passion cauliflower and a week's worth of strawberries because they were on sale at Kroger) and Jenny was fighting him tooth and nail.
So Jenny and I recited the Pledge of Allegiance and I mst say, I'm tickled by the mumbles again - much the same way I was when she was learning the LMNOP part of the alphabet song. She really is the cutest kid in existence - well, at least in this house right now anyway.

The afternoon naps on the weekend seem to be going away and I'm depressed about it. Selfish as it may be, I need those couple hours to rest and reboot my system so I can get through the rest of the day. Where does that child get the notion of giving up naps on weekends. We're going to have to fix this before the summer because Jenny doesn't do so well without a nap; and neither does her mother.
I'll keep you posted on the progress. Pray for us.
