Yesterday after a long day at work Joel lay down on the bed and was ready to have a nap before dinner time. I was lying on the bed next to him when Maddy came in and lay in between us.
First she stood up and was jumping between us then told us that she needed to do her exercises. After Joel's knee reconstruction we have been helping him do his exercises each day and Maddy decided that she needed to do her own. So she put all fours on the bed and pushed her bottom into the air then straightened her arms. It was pretty close to a push up, as much as a three year old can do anyway.
Joel decided that he had had enough of her and asked her to go to the kitchen and get a cherry out of the fridge. I think that he expected that since there were no cherries in the fridge that she would spend time trying to find one and then get distracted. Well she had other ideas and told her father "I can't daddy because I am comfortable". And that was that. How do you respond to a three year old who is comfortable???
