After watching Livia neatly pour milk for herself today, I thought she deserved a compliment. I said to my husband, “Wow. Livia has gotten so much better at pouring her own milk.” Her father, trying to impart some fatherly wisdom, told her that we get better at things by practicing them, to which Livia replied, “You’re only saying that because you want me to believe it.”
Damn. She’s clever. I hope we managed to instill some wisdom in her before she got too smart to listen to us.
