My 2 year-old reads Hemingway

As if it isn’t sweet enough that my daughter points to words in a book and ‘reads’ them to me, yesterday she pointed out the ugly truth. As she grabbed John’s current read, A Farewell to Arms by Ernest Hemingway, she pointed to each letter as she so sweetly read to me what it said, “This says, you need to stop talking on the phone.” Seriously, where does she get this?

Earlier in the day, I was actually talking on my cell phone while Audrey was playing outside. She yelled to me, “Mommy, I need a phone in my car.” I jokingly told her that she would be okay and I proceeded with my phone conversation. She was very persistent and kept yelling, “Mommy, I need a phone in my car to drive.” Remind me never to buy her a cell phone.

Audrey yelling at me to give her the phone.
