Remote Control
M. took Emma into the living room after supper to play. Usually they play Peek-a-Blocks train. This time Emma walked up to her chair and removed the pillow that keeps the cat off. She climbed in her chair and sat down. She picked up her personal remote (with no batteries) and pointed it at the television. When nothing happened she hollered. So Daddy got Elmo going for her.

I was in the kitchen for all of this and I was wondering what the heck he was doing turning on the TV when they were supposed to be playing. I was going to hold my tongue though. Now I'm glad I did. Emma sat there and watched Elmo for longer than she'd ever sit.
