The Finger


Liam has this little maneuvre we call "the finger." He is two, so he says "no" a lot. Often emphatically, and often accompanied by the finger. It's a stubby little index aimed square at the spot between your eyes. He does have deadly aim.

Sometimes the finger is a palm, and I'm not sure which is more frightening because with the palm you have five of the little suckers coming at you at once.

The only way to survive the finger is to ignore it. Laughing brings on heightened volume and a barrage of more fingers. But it is hard to not laugh.
