Know-it-All

Is it normal for two-year-olds to be such little know-it-alls? My experience tells me yes, but seriously, who do they think they are? They can barely form complete sentences, they still struggle with adverb and article usage, and they still go to the bathroom in their pants (at least mine does). How they can feel like experts given the circumstances is beyond me, but they still seem to.

My two-year-old corrects me all the time. This morning it was

me: You have chocolate all over your face.

Vincent: No, it’s brownie.

And last week it was

Dad: Jeff isn’t a kid anym0re, he’s like a dude. He’s just like one of the guys.

Vincent: No, he’s not a guy, he’s a giant.

Once we were driving around and this guy almost went the wrong way on a round-about.

Dad: Man that guy is so stupid. I am so sick of stupid American Fork drivers.

Vincent: He’s not stupid, he’s hungry.

And last night as we were getting ready for bed, Vincent kept telling me to move and not in a very polite way.

Dad: Why do you want mommy to move?

Vincent: Move

Dad: Why?

Vincent: move

Dad: I don’t think you understand the concept of why.

Vincent: The Y says “yuh.”
