Potatoes and Singing

We went to Memere's and Pepere's house for the afternoon.  Pepere had made a beef stew for lunch.  He had made it before and Violet had eaten a surprisingly large amount, so he made it again today.

We got Violet into her highchair and put the bowl in front of her.  Unlike the first time when she devoured a surprising amount, this time she just picked.  She ate a few carrots, but not much else.

I asked, "Violet, don't you like the stew?  Pepere made this for us."

Pepere said, "Violet, did you try the potatoes?"

Violet said, "The potatoes are too slippery. I can't eat them."  I'm not sure what that means, but there you go.

Later on, Violet ran around like a nut around the living room and eventually started to seem tired.  We put her down for a nap.  As tired as she seemed, she wasn't going to sleep.  From the other room I heard her say, "Daddy, I can hear you're voice. You didn't sing me any songs."  So it was my fault that she didn't nap?
