Anna is usually very good with Abby - including her in activities, helping to feed her, reading to her, etc. Of course though there are times when Anna takes toys from Abby or pushes her if she is crawling towards something that Anna has set up.
Today, for the first time, Abby spoke up for herself. Anna took a toy away from Abby and Abby screamed at Anna and swatted her hand at her. Whoa! When I told Matt he asked, "What did you do?" Oh - what sophisticated parenting tactic did I use - uuuh, I laughed! I couldn't help it. It took me by surprise. And Matt said, "What did Anna do?" She was just shocked - no response.
