Another thing about my daughter.

I mentioned earlier how she, the youngest in the household, tends to be subject to the tornadic-like actions of her 5-year-old brother. She's often bumped into, her little hands stripped of toys, and generally always in second place when he gets that dominant-competitive streak going.



But it should also be said that she often gets things her way in the end. She's quite verbal, very sweet, and sure of what she wants. And maybe more than a little bit manipulative. I got wise to this earlier today when her brother and I found ourselves sitting on the floor before her chair as we took turns quietly painting her nails pink, just as she asked.
