My daughter and her attention hogging ways.

Tonight I was trying to study for my upcoming exams while watching my two kids and my nephew. My three-year-old son was having a good time playing around with his one-year-old cousin, but my twenty-month-old daughter decided (as she often does) that I wasn’t paying enough attention to her, so she went to her room and got one her blankets and asked me to wrap it around her, which I did. She went back to playing and within a couple of minutes she was handing it to me to wrap around her again. This continued to happen for as long as I tried to study, only stopping when she knew I was watching her. If she wasn’t sure, she’d take off the blanket and bring it to me for fixing. Once I got tired of this and took the blanket away, she just went looking for something else, eventually finding a pair of sun glasses, and resuming the game.

As frustrating as it was, I have to laugh because I’m certain I probably did similar things to my poor mom when I was little.
