Setting: Evening. Inside the bedroom. Watching TV with my dad.
My 1 yr. and 10 month old niece, not wearing a diaper, pee-d on the bed.
My sister (who takes care of my niece) enters the room.
Knowing that my sister would be really mad at her for wetting the bed, my niece took the blanket and rubbed profusely on what seemed to be the wet spot.
Seeing her reaction, my sister, instead of getting angry, changed my niece's underwear and laughed while telling us the story.
Setting: Later that night. My niece is usually washed by my sister before letting her wear bedtime clothes.
My sister: Come, let's go wash.
My niece articulately says: I don't want.
But of course, she doesn't have any say in it once my sister carries her over to the bathroom

Setting: Morning
My two sisters went out to buy a birthday cake for my mom. My niece saw them go out then she cried. My other sister took pity on my niece, so she offered that she could take her to walk outside provided that she wear her slippers by herself. So my sister went up to get changed while I sat beside my niece figuring out how to wear her slippers. The moment I sat, she pushed me while saying:
My niece: away...don't like (meaning: she doesn't like me. she could only be assisted by my sister)
Me: ok (That was new. It was a bit heartbreaking but it was also a bit funny)
After being assisted by my sister(instead of letting my niece wear slippers, she wore shoes), my mom double checked on her attire and teased:
My mom: Maybe you wore your shoes the wrong way.
My niece: No.
Setting: Evening
My niece: Mi-milk. Mi-milk.
Me: I'll give you milk but don't play with it okay?
My niece: Promise. (So at almost 2 years old, she knows how and when to use this word. Little did she know the gravity of the meaning of this word because after a minute, she played with her milk.)
