To be 15 months young

 Being 15 months young
means

Greeting the world with a stuck-out tongue






Lasso-ing your dog









Riding a frog





 Putting tissue paper in the CD player



Having crazy Beethoven hair*




                       
Intense emotions


Magic potions



Playing with dolls

Scaling the walls


Eating fresh summer berries


The word "Mine!" (Everything is Meri's.)



Collecting and inspecting rocks


Running around without shoes or socks



Slithering on the floor stalking ants


       
Turning a walk into a dance




Big grins




Swimming with friends




Going to the mountain for a hike



Squealing when you see a bike!



Climbing trees

Catching some Zzzz's


                                                        
Swinging on the gate

Staying up too late





Playing the blues


 Filling Papa's shoes


Reading a book

Learning to cook



Falling down when you're busy playin'




..but getting back up and doing it all again!**
