Mobile Infant

  
     Here's my second attempt. I wrote this one from the perspective of a mobile infant and have begun to toy with the idea of two protagonists: mobile infant boy and toddler girl. Same disclaimer: situations and names fabricated or changed. Feedback is welcome.

Confessions of a Toddler- Birth of an idea

     My name is Alicia and I teach toddlers. I am quirky, happily married and very into chocolate/CrossFit. As a teacher, I mainly enjoy cloud watching, dinosaur impressions and Sandra Boynton books. 
      Here is my first attempt at creative writing from a toddler's viewpoint. I was really just blowing off steam after a long, confusing day teaching little ones. Feedback is always welcome. Situations and children's names have been changed/fabricated to suit my imagination and protect the professionalism I so desperately cling to and the innocence of the children subject to my company 40+ hours per week.
