Toddlers are Quackers

[Cyneswith]

MC - We had a local trunk show, and my husband got some gifts while I went to a meeting. Husband told son "remember, you can't tell Mommy what we got." "Yeah, I remember. Don't tell people what their Christmas present is."

He's told me 5 times I'm getting a cake decorating kit.

Little kids are the best at being the worst at keeping secrets.

Maybe they are too young to understand the concept...

Yes

My daughter had a meltdown tonight. At first I though it was because she was tired, but she got frantic/panicked, which I haven't seen in her before... "What is wrong?" "I lost my BOY! I can't FIND him!" "You mean your brother?" "Yes! He's my very favorite boy and... and I LOST him!" Reassured her he's not lost, he's with daddy, he'll be back, and that I miss him too. She threw herself in my arms and sobbed "I MISS him! He's my very bestest brother and I wanna hug him."

How old is the sweetie?

She's 2, he's turning 5, and it didn't occur to me until tonight that this is the first time they have been apart for more than 3-4 hours.

I am getting Duckling a swing!!

I’m not sure if the missing swing can be replaced. I’ll have to look when I get it this weekend.

I have seen indoor play equipment before, but was intrigued that this one is fold up and cheap ($35).
Some of you might be interested.
