Our little girl is quite the social butterfly--as long as she has already sized you up and determined that you are safe and trustworthy--then she will jabber away to you about any and every thing she is thinking about, which is a good bit, I assure you! It is so delightful--the little conversations we have!
If guests are over she ceases playing in order to visit with the guest. As we walk around town she waves, smiles, and says "hello" to EVERYONE we pass on the way! And if the telephone rings--well she will hound me about answering it unless I pick up during the first ring! By hounding, I mean she will repeatedly remind me that the phone is ringing--despite my explanations that I may be cooking something or wiping off my hands in order to answer! The reason she wants it answered is, of course, because she wants to talk to whomever is on the other line! And, let me tell you, she is NOT fond of giving the phone back after her turn--she likes a verrrry looooong turn talking on the phone.
But yesterday she really came through for me! I was in the laundry room when I heard the phone ring. It soon stopped ringing, so I assumed that Will had picked up upstairs. From behind me I heard Aine run from the kitchen through the house to the laundry room announcing "Your Phone, Mama!" With my back still to her I said not to worry, that Daddy had answered the phone. When she continued to repeat her chant with added passion, I finally turned to see her holding the kitchen phone out to me. How did she get tall enough to reach the top of the counter!!! It must have been while I blinked!
It was very polite of her to answer the phone, deliver it to me, and then wait for her turn to talk to her Nona. So, we have a new little secretary!! Now we must work on a polite reply for her to use WHEN she picks up the receiver! LOL!
If you want to talk to Aine--call our house--if she's awake she'll be sure to answer and tell you all that is on a two-year-old girl's mind!
