I've finally deciphered the language of a nineteen month old!! I hold the secret to years of wonder. It is simple. I found that children of this age live their lives in antonyms. They hear one thing and practice the exact opposite. Here are my examples from this evening:
No = Yes
Stop = Try harder.
Get down = Climb higher into danger...and jump.
Come here = Run away fast and don't look back.
Quiet = Scream your lungs out until my ears bleed.
Be nice to the kitty = Pull kitty's tail and drag him 5 feet.
We are working on synonyms this week...
