It's Starting

Today we went to the Birch Aquarium with Rayna and her twins, Maya and Lulu. Jarrah knows the Aquarium well by now, and has certain "must-dos." One of them is looking through the pay telescope that faces the pier and the ocean. It's a pointless little interlude, considering that she hasn't figured out how to focus her gaze through it, but--until today--a harmless one:

"Mama."

"Yes, Jarrah."

"Up. Look."

"Okay."

"Mama." (she reaches for my purse) "Money. Money. Money."

I'm dreading our next visit to Toys R Us.
