Maevy,

This morning was the first (I'm sure) of many fights over what outfit to wear. Daddy picked out an outfit last night, like always, and this morning while getting you dressed, he saw that the shirt was sleeveless. It's getting a little cooler out and it's definitely not sleeveless shirt weather. Daddy ran upstairs and grabbed you a long-sleeved shirt that matched your pants. I took off your shirt and started to put on the new shirt.

Well, you weren't interested. You started whining, wouldn't put your arms through, and kept taking the shirt off your head. So I thought ok...you can eat your breakfast without a shirt on. You'll forget about the sleeveless shirt and we'll be good to go.

Um...no. After breakfast I tried again with the long-sleeved shirt and you said "No." I asked if you wanted to wear the brown shirt (sleeveless shirt) and you said "Yes" or really you smiled and happily grunted. (We're still working on actually saying the word "yes") So fine. You got to wear the sleeveless shirt and we threw a white cardigan on over it in case you got cold during the day. At least this "fight" was still over age-appropriate clothing, I can only imagine what the future brings.

Tomorrow, you're wearing long sleeves.

Love,

Mommy
