Ba(b)y Watch

My two year old spent much of Friday sitting on a stack of three plastic chairs at the edge of our lawn. She was diaperless, and clutching a pair of toy binoculars. She informed me that she was a lifeguard.

Every few minutes, she'd use the binoculars to sweep the horizon line (ie, the fence and front walk) and made demands that I move an offending toy, or in some instances, just get out of her sight (!) so she could keep the yard safe.

I kept jogging by in slow motion, but she didn't think I was funny. In fact, she wanted to know if I was hurt, and did I need a kiss for that? She also ordered the poor dog around, but didn't leave her post once in three hours. Good times.

I'm hoping she'll save the yard every day.

Three hours?! "Good times" is right.

Omigosh, if my kids sat still for ten minutes outside, I'd... I'd... I'd, okay I admit it, I'd probably fall asleep and then they would burn the house down or something, so maybe it is a good thing that they don't.

Now, if you had told her that she HAD to sit there for even three minutes, you would have had a fight on your hands! I can just see her sittinig there little naked bum and all, bossing everyone around!

Hey, at least you got a kiss for your owies!

My prediction for your children's future occupations:

1. a playwright
2. an actor
3. a palientologist / think tank guy.

Lily enjoys telling us to "go [a]way" on a regular basis. But she's not doing anything heroic like saving people from drowning in the lawn. No. She's trying to misappropriate cupcakes and pee on the dog.

What I wouldn't GIVE for my very own lawn lifegaurd...
