This is Pretty Butterfly's journal. I am terribly sorry, but I'm not in at the moment - I will be glad to get to you if you will leave me a message.

Less irritating than a toddler, I'm guessing?

[Voice]

[red-army-btrfly.livejournal.com]

I suppose so. She's better able to take care of herself than a toddler would be, at least.

[Voice]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

And most thirteen-year-olds don't try to chew on hair and jewelry.

[Voice]

[red-army-btrfly.livejournal.com]

There's that, too. It sounds as though you have someone with that problem. [Now Butterfly sounds rather amused.]

[Voice]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Mm; Lisa's daughter Rachel is two.

[Voice]

[red-army-btrfly.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see. [She doesn't know who 'Lisa' is; for the moment she's assuming a close friend.]

[Voice]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

She's at that age where she thinks everything is a toy.

[Voice]

[red-army-btrfly.livejournal.com]

Of course. Well, how else are they supposed to learn what things are?

[Voice]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Not putting them all in their mouths would be a good first step.

[Voice]

[red-army-btrfly.livejournal.com]

I think it has something to do with their mouths being more sensitive than their fingers.

[Voice]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

... Really?

[Voice]

[red-army-btrfly.livejournal.com]

That's what my mother said when I asked her about my sister doing it, at least. Though I could be misremembering, since it was so long ago.

[Voice]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I've never asked about it. We just tell her to stop.

[Voice]

[red-army-btrfly.livejournal.com]

Mm. I suppose once she starts talking she'll ask about things instead.

[Voice]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

She talks. Too much, sometimes.

[Voice]

[red-army-btrfly.livejournal.com]

Really? Hm. I suppose I don't remember that much from when my sister was that young.

[Voice]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

She's been talking for a while now. Well over six months.

[Voice]

[red-army-btrfly.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see.

[Voice]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

... She's not all that bad. I don't really mind her most of the time.
