Bragging
I'm amazed by my daughter every day. I know, all parents are, but H is shockingly smart. I think I've touched on this before, but I'm not sure.
It's actually difficult to navigate in social situations. In general I try to just keep quiet about her. I don't want to be that person that is always bragging about her kid. And I definitely don't want it to come off as though I'm trying one-up anyone else, especially my friends. I am very open about that fact that she's kind of a freak of nature and I have very little to do with it. I think she might actually have an eidetic memory, although I don't know what that looks like in children. Or in adults other than TV characters.
Anyway, sometimes I can't help it. Sometimes I have to show her off. I don't want to have a negative reputation or to be perceived as a show-off or, well, brag. But what 2 year old not only knows circle, triangle, square, etc., but also trapezoid & hexagon? Sometimes you all need to see the craziness.
