Lucy is learning so quickly. Her speech and understanding are, to my mind, amazing. Not so by the fact I believe her to be a genius, more for the reason that the conversations and debate we have are expanding and at times hilarious. It is a joy to watch her grow and I love our conversations fuelled by her imagination. Tonight the discussion ensued about the book we read. Lucy was attempting to make the argument that only boy Pixies could be naughty and the girl Pixies were good. We must have been reading a different book! Lucy was definitely prepared to take her argument and opinion to its limits. Interesting how she is already developing stereotypes and assumptions about roles between the sexes. Will have to address that quickly me thinks! She is very opinionated like her father and I would not have it any other way. Back to the Pixies - a gripping and yet slightly strange story that had me on the edge of my seat. I was interviewed for a local newspaper recently about life and work and they asked me what I was reading at the moment. I am sure I would be taken very seriously in the world of social care if I had said 'Little Miss Lucky and the naughty pixies!' Story time with Lucy is always a pleasure and I find it helps form the basis for our relationship. Healthy and intelligent debate, backed by a mutual love and respect, with a cuddle as a lovely extra. Anna - I do wonder where our future story time will take our relationship?
