Lately, Rachel has been in an exceptionally generous mood. She tries to give me everything -- starting with her pacifier yesterday morning after I gave her her bottle. She was quite insistent that I put the nipple end in my mouth.
Then, yesterday afternoon, I gave her my keys to play with. When she was finished, she handed them to me with a smile. I try to make a habit of saying, "May I have my keys back, please? Thank you, Rachel!" just to get an early start on good manners.
Yesterday evening, though, she outmaneuvered me. She tried to offer me a Cheerio (after she had gummed it within an inch of its life; you can imagine how sticky and gross it was). As I was about to take it, she snatched it back, with a huge smile.
Our friend Kim thought this was hilarious. "Hah!" she said. "Faked you out, mommy!"
