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!**
