Toddlers good intentions gone awry


Removed #1

Recommended Posts

Normally right now if we're not on our walk we're winding down for the night...dogs are laying down chilling out, we're watching a family movie and getting generally into the slow down scheme of things so that within the next hour sleepies can happen for the kids...

Everything was going according to plan and then....

The dogs had the audacity to trade chew toys. They did this without fighting, growling, rawring or anything like that...Eponine dropped hers in front of Fox...Fox dropped his in front of Eponine and...they traded. I've never seen it before but...stranger things have happened and them not fighting over toys isn't something I'm going to gripe

Toddler is still learning the concept of sharing. To her at this point sharing is when she starts to eat something, doesn't like it and shoves it into my husbands mouth with a huge smile whilst proclaiming..."Share...you like? is good?"

She could not grasp that the dogs were sharing their toys...she kept taking Eponine's chew toy away from Fox...whilst chastizing him for stealing it from her.

The conversation for the last twenty minutes has gone something like this:

"No...That's Eponine's bone!"

"Sweetie, they're sharing..."

"But Foxie...Eponine's bone!"

"Yes sweetie...Eponine doesn't mind. She has Foxie's bone."

A look of total shock...walking over to Eponine to see if that was in fact the case...

"Eponine...Give Foxie his bone! Foxie...give Eponine her bone!!!"

"Hunny they're sharing."

"Give it back!!!!"

"You know how you play with your sisters toys."

"It's not hers...it's Eponine's..."

and around and around and around we've gone...
