Au Contraire...
Ellie was watching sprout, when the girl hosting the show asked the kids at home in an overly-excited, super sweet perky voice: "Would you like to learn how to say 'siblings' in sign language?"
"Uh-uh." Ellie shook her head no, and furrowed her brow.
Yeah apparently ASL offends my kid?? Don't ask.
"Great!" chirped the girl on TV, and proceeded to show the kids how.
Ellie turned to me, shocked and clearly upset. "Why'd she say 'great' when I said 'uh-uh'??"
I laughed. "Probably because all the other children in the country shouted 'yes!!!' from their living rooms."
She looked at me like I was insane, and went back to scowling and watching.
Ahh, and Eva's head smelled like chocolate today. I couldn't figure out why, even after a thorough head inspection. There was no chocolate in all that hair. But, I soon discovered the culprit, in the form of a smashed up mini M&M on the blanket she'd been laying on during floor time.
Ellie and I swear we have no idea how that could have happened.
