Hayden, Contrarian

Hayden learned a new game while we were in NC:

He’s becoming quite the contrarian. The other day, I took something from him that he’d been chewing on. I told him that I knew it felt neat on his teeth. He quite distinctly said, “Two.” (Or “To,” or “Too.” Whatever.) I had to tell him that he really had four teeth now.

He’s a pretty determined guy. When he’s set his mind to something, whether it’s standing up in the tub or playing with the computer cords, keyboard and diskettes, or rifling through our important papers, it takes quite a bit of distraction to get him away from his goal.

Luckily, I’m pretty determined, too. Sometimes, at least.
