“Mamma, I don’t want to hold that hand, I want to hold the right one.”
“I’m sorry?” I looked at C incredulously. “You want which hand?”
“The right hand. That one!” C said, pointing confidently to my right hand.
“Wait a second. Baby, hold up your left hand.”
C held up her left hand.
“OK. Hold up your right hand.”
C held up her right hand.
“Mamma, I want to hold your right hand.”
“Sure thing, baby, sure thing.”
A few more tests and I had to concede. My two year old baby knows her left from her right.
Now what I want to know is this: If at two she knows things that I still have trouble mastering… what does that mean for our future?

It means that you are in for a world of pain! LOL!! Wow, what a smart little angel!
Amazing the things they pick up on and then throw out at you so nonchalantly, like they haven’t just totally upended your world!!
A very sweet post. You daughter is doing great.
And you have great time ahead…
Wow it amazes me the things kids know without letting on. PS thanks for all the great advice about the amnio.
Love this cute story. Glad you posted it for sharing!
Wow! Your daughter’s doing great! I know my husband’s been working with our daughter on left and right and I suspect she’s picked up the concept fairly easily, but I think I kind of avoid the subject because of my own difficulty knowing left from right. Great post!
Face it. You’re DOOMED! *lol*
It means she’ll be good at giving her husband directions when driving. Unlike me, who says “turn left here. NO The other left!”
