Swee’Pea is the only girl in her daycare. And while I normally wouldn’t want that many boys surrounding my daughter day in and day out, I realize that they’re way more interested in their own dingaling than anything Swee’Pea happens to possess at the moment. That being said, it apparently hasn’t stopped Swee’Pea from working her “womanly” charms on the boys around the house.

We found this out today when my lovely wife was discussing Swee’Pea’s recent attachment to the “word” AAACK! with our daycare provider. The daycare provider mentioned that while she has noticed Swee’Pea’s tantrums and her use of the word, the only one she really pisses off at daycare is TheMonk. If she takes something from him, he’ll put up a fight and that definitely is an AAACK! moment for Swee’Pea. The other boys? They apparently have learned that it is best to just give Swee’Pea whatever she wants – just so she won’t go ballistic on them.

This explains a lot. It explains why our little one continues to use this “word” while we have refused to give in to her demands when she gets AAACKed out in our presence. (It works so well at that other place. Why won’t it work with these people, damnit?!) It also explains why my son holds his toys close to his body whenever Swee’Pea comes near.

This leads me to two thoughts. One, if we don’t get this attitude turned around quick, I will have a very small amount of pity for the man who finally marries Swee’Pea (Not a lot, though. I mean he will be taking my daughter). Two, TheMonk, apparently, will not be putting up with any of that from his future wife.
