Instinct is a funny thing. Webster defines instinct as “a natural or inherent aptitude, impulse, or capacity” So, as I was getting ready for work this morning I heard the familiar sounds of my little roommate reminding me that it was 6:45, well past his wake up time. Strangely though he doesn’t cry in the morning or even yell. It’s just kind of a strange groan. So I walked in and said good morning only to find him leaned up against the side of his crib with one hand behind his head as a comfortable cushion and the other hand tucked neatly in the waistband of his diaper. It got me thinking, is this behavior instinctual or is he already learning by example. I hope, for his sake, it’s the former.
