Any stay-home or "staycationing" grandma will tell you that it's exhausting to keep up with a toddler. Sometimes I imagine that what keeps these kids going can later be harnessed into some form of energy that'll power engines and appliances.
No wonder toddler classes are short--an hour long, three hours max. Even the most patient, Job-like teacher is pooped after 60 minutes with eight of these kids.
Yes, I am the voice of experience. What has helped me is I try to be inventive with our activities together. I told our little ball of energy I'd take photos of parts of her body. She seemed open to the idea of keeping still for a few seconds. I had to work fast. These are the results of one morning of playtime with Kai and her Booboo.

| Eyes that tantalize |
 |
| Ears that tickle |
 |
| Nose and mouth and teeth and cheeks |
 |
| Restless hands |
 |
| The tiny feet that receive my kisses |
 |
| The soles of an explorer |
 |
| Model takes a break. |
