“Are you kidding me?”
When describing Avery I’m always using the words sweet, silly and sassy. Two examples of the latter behavior: At bedtime recently, she asked if she could watch a show when she woke up the next morning. “Instead of doing that, why don’t you read a book or play a game?” I suggested. “Are you kidding me?” she asked in an exasperated tone. And the next night, after she didn’t respond to something I had just said, I told her, “Mama is talking to you.” “Avery isn’t listening to you,” was her reply, along with a big laugh. (Don’t worry, though: Her sweetness counteracts the sass.)
