Vicky...unless the eye contact is missing during affectionate times or just in general, I'd say you've got a 3 year old acting like a 3 year old.
The good news is at 3, they are still gullible enough to believe those little white lies....
"if you keep rolling your eyes like that, pretty soon they'll roll right out of your head"....
Julie...I cracked up at the story of your cousin. I tried to flush my hearing aids down the toliet one time. Almost made it, but mom caught me. I didn't give up though...finally did manage to flush the liver and peas down there...LOL
But not the aids...had to "lose" them in other places and dang it! She kept finding them!
