We recently promoted Violet from her high chair to a booster seat at the table for meals. We finally traded the simplicity of the high chair forcing Violet to be a captive for the meal for the much more compact booster seat. While we were enjoying regaining about eight square feet of floor space in our kitchen, Violet's relative freedom adds a new challenge to mealtime.
Violet, Momma and I were eating lunch. In short, Violet was being a pain. She made a mess with her food, she kept nearly knocking over her water and was super fidgety in her chair.
It was getting under Christie's skin a lot more than mine. She told Violet, "Sit straight in your chair and pay attention. You're making a mess and almost knocking over your water." She gave an "Uhh" noise and finished with, "I'm sick of having to tell you."
Without a pause, Violet said, "I'm sick of it too," and accompanied it with her pouty face and sad eyes.
