We've just spent our long weekend with my cousin and her family. She has 7 month old twins. 7 month old twins that taught me a great lesson.
The kids love being held. You leave them on their play mat, they'll keep playing. Till that is, they see someone standing. Once that happens, they will start bawling. That goes on till someone picks them up. They know that they have to be patient till someone gives in. In the mall, we saw that we were not the only ones suffering from this game of cat and mouse. All the adults gave in eventually. Somewhere down the line, as we grow up, we've lost our ability to keep calm when there's chaos all around.
7 month olds can teach us something.

you just wait - you think 7 month olds taught that to you, wait till they become 6-7 years old. On one hand i keep learning things from my nephew and on the other hand 7 year old surprise me at cubs scouts.
