Dialogue….if you can call it that.

Me: “Do you want to watch Animals?”
Mia: “Yesh, Amnimals”

So, I place “Amazing Animals” into the video recorder.

Mia explodes into a screaming, stomping mess. “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!”

Me: “What, I thought you wanted Animals on…okay, out they go” and I pop out the tape.

Mia explodes into a screaming, stomping mess. “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Me: “What, you want to watch Amazing Animals????? In or out Mia?”

Mia: “In. Amnimals. Pleash”

In they go again, and wash, rinse, repeat all of the above at least 2 more times.

I finally remove the tape, pretend to put it back in another box, then pretend to remove it from the Amazing Animal box, then place it back in the VCR.

This time it starts and she is happy.

Me, I need someone to teach me how to read a 21 month old childs mind.
