ME: what book do you want to read
do you want to read ‘Go, Dog, Go’ or ‘Pat The Bunny’

ME: are you saying Bunny?
BABY: buhh
ME: that’s right
resist the metanarrative

ME: looks like you’ve outgrown these jammies
BABY: [kicks]
ME: have you also outgrown epiphenomenalism?
BABY: [kicks]
ME: are you kicking the notion of a hierarchical system of cause-and-effect away from you

BABY: [kicks]
ME: good

 

BABY: hi
ME: what else
BABY: hi
ME: …degger

 

ME: what is that in your hand
BABY: block
ME: very good

BABY: [gnaws block]
ME: that’s right

BABY: [eats paper]
ME: oh VERY good
