If the visor fits...

Today, Jane and I enjoyed a trip to Target together. I had to know that something was going to go wrong, because she was way too compliant about riding in the cart. Picture it: There we were in the middle of a toy aisle shopping for a neighbors birthday present. Enter stage left a mother pushing a cart with a little boy Jane's age riding in it. The woman picks up a random toy. Jane points her finger at the woman and rips into a litany of "NO"s, only to be punctuated with a "bad". So it went like this, "NO NO NO NO NO NO--BAD!". Everyone looked stunned, except Jane who just took the opportunity to repeat herself. "NO NO NO NO NO--BAD"

There is no recovery from that, but to leave the other mother and her cherub in the aisle to count their blessings.

We have to start talking nicer to the cats.
