Adventures in Fannish Parenting

[przed]

Rosalind loves playing with the rolls from toilet paper. She especially loves putting them on her wrists. Like vambraces. So I started telling her that they were vambraces, determined that she will be the only kid in her preschool class who knows the names of parts of armour.

Tonight, I'm folding laundry and Ros is with the Sweetie getting ready for bed and I hear her shout "Daddy, look at my vambraces!"



I'm so proud.

Next step: teach her about tassets and pauldrons. Not to mention Boromir.

I'm totally teaching her all the stuff I wish I'd known. And her vocabulary is coming along stunningly. (She was cracking herself up at the dinner table the other day, and only stopped laughing long enough to say "that's hilarious." The Sweetie and I were suitably impressed. After we stopped laughing.)
