[QUOTE="donna723, post: 95740, member: 1883"] Definately when they were very little! I think my favorite time with both of them was when they first started putting words together clearly enough that they could finally communicate exactly what was going through their little heads. And let me tell you, there's some [i]strange[/i] stuff going on in there! When they're infants they cry or they want something, and you're wishing they could talk so they could just [i]tell[/i] you what's on their mind instead of leaving you guessing. Then when they finally do communicate, it's just ... WOW! Who knew! It was at about this age when I finally realized that my daughter assumed that when [i]she[/i] hurt, [i]I[/i] could feel it too, physically, just like she did! If I didn't respond, she'd get mad at me. Her head hurt once (she never mentioned it) and she got furious with me for not doing anything about it. She was in tears, smacked her forehead with the palm of her hand, and screamed at me, "IT HURTS RIGHT HERE! (smack!) CAN'T YOU [i]FEEL[/i] IT???" Funny, she never made this same assumption about their father! Yep, they're like little aliens at that age! Raising the martian babies! [/QUOTE]
