I now understand. When Hallie turned two and I was worrying about the "terrible twos," and everyone said, "Oh two isn't that bad, it's once they turn three that they are trouble." I know Hallie won't be three for a little while, but she is making it count. It isn't that she is trying to be trouble, she just is curious, and thinks she can do things "all by herself." It seems like lately that she has been into everything!
This day, I was starting to clean/organize/pack some stuff in our bedroom, and Hallie was playing dress-ups in her bedroom...so I thought. She came in a little sad, with green goop all over her hand and in her hair and said "I made a mistake," then instantly started sobbing. I wasn't expecting that at all, but I couldn't help but hug her. Then she took me to show me what the mistake she made was. She had opened up my lotion and dumped it out. Now, not exactly what I want to see, but far worse things could happen. I wasn't too concerned.
