2Y1M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee

Kinder Nursery
Today, we played balls in the room. Yee-chan was delighted. She was running with the ball in her hands. She raised the ball above her head and happily said, “Teacher, Mickey”. Yee-chan’s Mickey pose is very cute.
Way Home from Nursery
As we rode home, Yee saw a bird and pointed at it. I said, "birds fly in the ..." "Sky!" Yee shouted before I finished the sentence. I have been repeating to Yee in specific phrases and waiting for her to repeat them on her own.
Reading Time
Yee brought me a book to read. i told her to keep her toys first. She sat on the bed and said, "No keep" I was surprised at what she said but it was a pleasant surprise. Since she refused to keep the toys, I refused to read. Then she took another book, sat down and read by herself.

Yee left some toys in the living room. I asked her to clean up. "I won't" was her reply. I wonder why she is picking up on the "defying words". Are all toddlers alike?
