So we are trying really hard to be gentle parents. Emberly has a super tender heart and does way better transitioning with some extra warning (for example: "we're going upstairs in two minutes") rather than saying "time to go upstairs." Obviously she has no concept of "two minutes" yet, but she does understand that whatever we are doing is coming to an end and can start to prepare for what's next.
Well obviously we use this phrase a lot, because Emberly has started to use it too. After dinner she asks, "mommy, play? two minutes?" :) or "mommy buckle this? two minutes?" :) yup. That's my Emmy. She's pretty awesome.
And like Jordan says, "Are we the only ones that think she's as hilarious as she is?"
Yes. Especially because we're probably the only ones that understand her. It just makes parenting together all the sweeter.
