s

This post was started by our toddler. She has incredibly quick hands and has had a laptop within reach for her entire life. She loves to lash out and hit random keys.

She and I have an understanding. She IS allowed to incessantly press the mute button and the volume buttons on the side of the laptop. She likes to make the little toddler sized button light up and go out as she presses it. Give her an inch though...

She hits odd sequences of keys and brings up help screens and odd windows that I never before knew existed. This little genius excels at discovering hot keys. She, stuck in the middle of the bed cannot reach the right half of the keyboard to hit the enter key before I can administer a swat to her little hand. some how she typed a sequence of 4-5 keys that entered the "s" and hit publish post.

Her two older sisters I nicknamed persistent and irrepressible. The oldest seems to always strive to stay sunny in her effort find yet another way to still get what it is that she wants to do thus irrepressible. The middle one is an evil genius and from a young age never ever accepted no for an answer. She seemed to have an unlimited pain threshold, and would just glower at you if discipline was attempted. This one is by far more difficult than any of the other kids. TO top it off she is tiny, most likely will be considered technically a little person. As I understand it an adult under 4'10" qualifies. She is just not that interested in nourishment and is short as well. She looks like a little cherub. An evil evil cherub. There's a reason these frightening creatures are used to guard the entrance to the Garden of Eden. WHo would dare pass them.

I gotta go, she is , as we speak, one-by-one, removing each wipe from the box and throwing them to the four winds. The cat, buried under a pile of wet wipes is less amused than I.
