Any tips on getting an almost-three-year-old girl to wear pants? Claire is an avid Backyardigans watcher and she has recently decided she will not wear pants because "Tasha [a character on the show] doesn't wear pants!!" I pointed out that Tasha is a singing and dancing hippopotamus, but apparently that was not a strong enough argument for why we shouldn't model our real lives after her behavior. Thanks a lot Nick Jr. Also, I'm thinking of adopting a permanent Yorkshire accent. I'm a little bit good at it and it makes everything sound just a little more delightful. Love and miss you. C-dawg
