Telling stories
Dad: Tell me a story about dad going to work.
Esmond:
Ok.
Once upon a time a big brother lived in a little house with a big daddy
and a medium mommy and a small baby Coral. Esmond had a big bowl and
mom had a small bowl and dad had the biggest bowl. And they all had
chairs at the table. And then dad left to go to work, and mommy left,
and Coral left and nanny left.
Dad:
And then what happened?
Esmond:
I don't know.
Esmond:
Ok.

Quiet Voice
Today mom was upset with me with something and raised her voice. I told her:"Mom, I like you to talk to me in quiet voice." I think it is important to tell the growups how we small people feel.

Pretending
"I want milk!"
Dad: "finish your pizza first."
[then I started to cry]
Dad: "Are you pretending to be sad?"
"No, I am pretending to be mad."
[then I laughed]

Stop Coral from crying
On the way back from the swimming class, Coral was crying so I sang an ABC song to her and she stopped crying right away. Few minutes later, she started to cry again, so I said to mom and dad:"I have a plan" and then I put my finger on my mouth and said "shhhh, shhh, shhh..." and it worked again!
