a female right ... rite?

i know k is not alone in this, and i know it can't simply be a female thing, but what is it about a toddler that makes them change their minds, constantly, all day long?

this is the latest thing in our house. 

"i want charlotte's web"
i cue up charlotte's web
"no, i think i want mr. fox"
(i no longer play the fool, but a couple of weeks ago...) i cue up mr. fox
"i want charlotte's web!!!" with ensuing tears and tantrum

what in the world???

as i said, i no longer play the fool... now she gets what she asked for in the first place.  this goes on all day long, about everything under the sun.  food, toys, playing in the pool, going out, anything.

i am smart enough to realize this is a phase of the beast ... oops, i mean toddler.  and i know this won't last forever, but how long will this go on?  i know it's part of the toddler exerting his/her opinions and making his/her own decisions, but come on.

i love my little girl :)
