Wearing her out
Julie and I took Lyla to the Children's Museum today. One exhibit there involves these tree things, big plastic bugs, bird noisemakers, and a slide. Lyla spent about 20 minutes dropping bugs into tin cans, immensely pleased by the plunk they made. Then this four-year-old boy would take the bugs out. I dare say they were cooperating. And perhaps flirting.
The water exhibit would've held Lyla's attention for six hours, I'm convinced.
When you drop a ping-pong ball into that pipe, the flowing water shoots it out another hole. You can imagine how entertaining this would be to a 14-month-old. We finally pulled her away when we discovered how freezing her hands were.
Our whole goal today, like any Sunday, was to wear Lyla out to the point of ridiculousness.
It worked.
