My daughter is over 3 feet tall. She is also only 2 years old. She stand head and shoulders above other kids. she gets her height from me. I am about 6’4″ to 6’5″ depending on what gas station I am coming out of. The reason I bring this up is because Danni also has been blesses with my curiosity.
We have strict rules about what Danni can and cannot get into at our house. She is allowed to touch certain drawers and cabinets. She is not allowed to touch the drawer with the eating utensils. At other people’s houses she is allowed to go into those drawers (i.e. grandparents). This is fine. Danni is smart enough to know if something flies at Mimi or MeeMaw’s house that doesn’t mean it will fly at Mommy and Daddy’s house.
Chelsea was cooking dinner in the kitchen. I was standing at the kitchen bar and telling her about my day. Danni was running in and out of the kitchen. Chelsea asked me to get Danni’s chair ready so she could eat. Danni heard this and went to the drawer. She opened it and reached in.
“No Ma’am! We do not go into that drawer.”
“Okay, Daddy, Sorry” batting her eyelashes at me. (She gets THAT from her mother)
“It is not okay. Next time you do that, we are skipping time out and you are getting a spanking. Next time you go in that drawer what are you going to get?”
“A fork”
