It is October in Seattle and the rains have begun. This is bad news for Mia, who has recently decided she does not like rain. When she started to get upset, saying "no rain," I pointed out that rain is just water from the sky. It makes the grass green and the trees and flowers grow, etc. Now she gets upset when it rains and cries, "no, water...water from the sky!"
Mia asked for a pretzel in the car (she knows they are in the car, and thus she always asks for a pretzel). We told her she could have a cookie at home or a pretzel now in the car, but she had to choose one. She thought about it and responded, "Bye, bye, pretzel."
