She is in control

Dinner last night was hilarious. She’s eating and Brian & I are talking. I realize she has started talking as well and then she looks at Brian, points at him and says, “Daddy. Quiet.” Then turns to me, points and says, “Mommy. Quiet.” While she was telling me to be quiet, Brian had said, “Yes, Ma’am.” Her response was to turn to him, point and say a little more sternly, “Daddy. Quiet.” So Brian & I sat in silence and she went back to eating. We start laughing (quietly) and then couldn’t keep quiet and she scolded us and told us to be quiet again. By the end of it all, I had tears in my eyes from trying to hold in laughter. Brian & I couldn’t look at each other because we’d both start laughing which would make Taylor tell us “Quiet” again, which would make us laugh more. She eventually joined in the laughing and all was well.

Guess she didn’t care for our talking while she was trying to eat!
