"Do you like my nails?"

Last week as my doctor sat down in the room for my appointment, June went over to her and leaned on her lap and then causally said "Do you like my nails?" as she held the chipped purple fingernails up for the doctor to see. Dismayed at the fading polish she added, "I need more nails." and walked away.

June is a very grown up two year old (says June.) She is taking this I-need-to-be-independent stage of life to its fullest. She cooks her own eggs and pancakes (or so she thinks,) she has a chore chart and gets pennies for her efforts, and she is an expert nail painter. And clearly it was time to update her nails so that she can show them off at my next doctors visit.




As you can see, she's practically a teenager.

What really impresses me is that you can take her to your doctor's appointments. I've taken Charlie to a couple and he's been decent but I sure enjoy not taking him! I also think June is a pretty cool teenage two-year-old!
