Finally it happened. I've been anointed...twice! When I first began changing ec's diapers I was very careful because I had heard stories of what little boys can do, and I did not want to be peed on. Well, I guess the carefulness wore off as I began changing him several times a day, and yesterday he got me. Just my hands, fortunately. Soon after that he started making noises, so I tried to place him more on my bare knees than my shorts, but I missed. When I picked him up his diaper had leaked out his legs onto the hem of my shorts and up his back on his jammies. Fortunately I had followed E's suggestion last week that I might bring a spare pair of pants just in case there was a problem, so I changed my pants and she did a load of wash.
Yesterday morning was cool and cloudy, so after putting fresh pants on me and clean clothes on ec, we went to the park. I told es she would have to come quickly when I said it was time to leave, and she agreed she would. While I held ec so he could see the children playing, his sister climbed on the structure and went down the slides. She smiled and interacted with some of the other children and seemed to have fun. Several times she reminded me (and herself?) that she had to come when I called her. And she did!
I'm teaching her some new songs, like "Let's Go Fly a Kite" and "We're Off to See the Wizard." She is so responsive to music. She enjoys simple nursery-rhyme tunes, but why not go for classic movie songs?
