Three tots and a blanket

They were being dogs. On a leash. If one were to suggest that since there were three of them on the same leash, they were sled dogs, one would receive the blank stare indicative of the "What IS this adult going on about?" mindset. You see it now, you'll see it again in ten years or so.

(A piece of parental advice? They may think what they like, but never, ever, let the blank stare be accompanied by eye-rolling. )At one point, Eliana fell down.
"Josh! Josh you have to stop pulling when I fall down onto the floor!"
"Oh, sorry!"
He is, too. Sincerely sorry, as he should be. There are, however, two aspects to this little problem.
"Eliana, you could always let go of the blanket when you fall."
"Oh."

But who can remember teeny details like that when you're having this kind of fun??
