We were watching three children last night at our house and one of the kids just turned one a few weeks ago. Even though she is very small and very cute I was reminded of how quickly little ones can end up where they don't belong. I turned my head for a minute while the little one was crawling around on the floor and then I heard a splashing sound. There she was on the floor splashing her hands in the dog's water bowl surrounded by a pool of water! Just before that she had discovered the doggy door out to the back patio. She didn't seem to understand that she could have crawled out through the door but she seemed to like how the door flapped open.
My husband and I both came to the conclusion that babies really don't have a clue about social etiquette. (the seven year old wanted to know what etiquette was) Babies will let their noses run, speak loudly in indecipherable languages in public places, emit the most unbearable smells and be covered in food and they really aren't bothered a bit about it! When exactly does that all change?
Such deep and hysterical insights!
