Dadoo, Lucia!

Along with Clio's Halloween package from the Duggans, there was a special drawing from Lucia of a beautiful flower. On the back, it had the very useful instructions "please post on Clio's door." We were delighted to know exactly how the artist intended her work to be exhibited, and we were happy to oblige.


This is probably the first time many of you have seen Clio's little (tiny) room. See those stuffed animals on the top shelf? Clio's favorite thing to do first thing in the morning and last thing before bed is to point up there and say "I want that."

Here's how the rest of the game goes:


"You want this one?"

"No. I want that!" (points to another one)

"This one?"

"No. That!" (points)

"This?"
"That."


Finally, she'll relent and nod her head when we've made the rounds a few times, and I'll reach up and grab the lucky toy. When I hand it over to Clio, she shakes her head and laughs. How much fun is that?

Dave does not tolerate this game. He may be smarter than me after all.

Anyway. "Dadoo" (Clio's way of saying "Thank You"), Lucia!
