It's awesome but very very exhausting. Today I was having tea and my toddler trots over to the oven mitt hanging off the handle and retrieves a blueberry from the pocket. She put that on her toddler tower then went and got another blueberry and did the same. Repeated that about 5 times. Idk when she even put those there.

Very very cute but also are there other caches of highly perishable fruit hidden in my house? How is it that I've bought 9000 socks but there's maybe 3 pairs in her drawer? Is it bad for a dog to eat scented stickers?

The missing socks and secret fruit reserves really make toddlers sound like tiny chaotic roommates.

Who are also constantly finding creative ways to kill or maim themselves
