Love and Logic with an almost 2 year old

Our morning conversation about vitamins...

Mom: Would you like a tiger or a hippo?
Jackson: Lion!
Mom: Tiger or hippo?
Jackson: Both!
Mom: You pick or I'll pick for you.
Jackson: Hippo (in kind of a defeated voice).

Good job,Mom! Grandma probably would have been digging through the vitamin jar for a lion. One of the joys of being a Grandma.

it is so endearing that he said Hippo in a defeated kind of voice. I can just imagine it! It reminds me a of little girl who would just not give up raising her hand at a bad time, and she was so unrelenting that I finally gave in and just let her say her piece, and she burst out with "Plants are SPECIAL!" in the most heart felt way that I just kind of melted. That is how I felt when I read your post too. THanks!
