The second reason is much more fun - a new thing Miss Phoebe figured out. One day Karl's dad gave her his keys to play with and she walked right over to the back door and tried to put the keys in the lock! I got to see this in action when I saw her last weekend. She tried every lock she could find. Of course, she can't actually get the key into the lock, but that doesn't stop her from trying. I'm not sure what else she expects to happen, maybe that the door will open?
This door was already ajar so you can see her analyzing the situation above and then in the photo below holding the door steady while she tried the key.


That is exactly why I became a teacher. Those "a-hah" moments just never get old. It's truly a blessing to witness them.

ReplyDeleteI love the one she's analyzing the situation...so smart!
ReplyDeleteThis trick was super cute for a few days and then she fell on the keys and scratched her face. Now she's not allowed to hold the keys and just stares up at the key ring and cries daily. Ah, the blessings and maledictions of parenthood :)
