Reason No. 9

I love Amelie more than I did yesterday because when I got into a slight dispute with another driver on the way home from school she said "maybe he didn't see you" (always thinking the best of people - good!) then "no I think he just pushed out and pushing is naughty - I think he must be a baddie" (realism - excellent!).

I love Seth more than I did yesterday because he launched into a full scale negotiation with Amelie over breakfast about which toys they could play with before school and which they would therefore have first go on after school.

Unfortunately the negotiation mentioned above didn't go entirely to plan when the two parties couldn't come to a consensus and one threw a toy at the other one.  But we are still learning and I'm sure that one day they will be as successful at negotiation as their Daddy is!
