We have been (half-heartedly) trying to explain the difference between want and need to Squiggles. I can’t say we’ve had much success - her earnest list of “needs” is constantly expanding. Just a sample:
- My need to eat Oreo-yo-yo-yo-yos for breakfast.
- My need to drink Daddy’s Diet Coke.
- My need to NOT be careful on the stairs.
- My need to jump on Daddy’s belly.
- My need to pick my nose.
- My need to put my hand in my milk.
- My need to jump on Daddy’s computer.
- My need to pick Mommy’s nose.
- My need to poke Baby Sister’s eyeballs.
- My need to give Baby Sister some licorice.
- My need to NOT go to bed right now.
- My need to put my hands in the toilet.

The girls has needs!
I wish I could say that the distinction between wants and needs becomes clearer as they get older . . . yes, I do wish I could say that. :)
My NEED to see Squiggles again soon! ;) She's too cute!
Bryn read this list out loud to Calvin and Ivy and they were all pretty much crying with laughter. My liked it, too.
My need to go back to being two. NOW!
Oh my!
