Having a toddler around is like having a weird mirror that shows random things. Sometimes you can do the most extravagant things and she'll totally ignore them, other times she picks up on stuff--my wife will kick me and then my daughter starts kicking me. She's only 1, not quite 2.
Well they other day, she got one of my stones(still in it's box) and started carrying it around in one hand with a fork in the other. She could barely hold on to it, so I told my wife(who was right next to her), to grab it from her, before she drops it. A few seconds later my wife told me to look, because she had put the thing on the ground, grabbed the fork with both hands, and was rubbing it back and forth on the stone.
I was dumbfounded...I mean, she imitates all kinds of things she sees us doing, I just never thought of her pretend sharpening.
