The Holy Grail

Will someone please explain to me why babies prefer to play with remote controls and telephones rather than the educational toys that their parents so lovingly pick out for them? And how is it that a baby knows the difference between a "fake" remote or phone and the "real" thing? Gees. I really try to keep these items off limits but when Little Bit locates one of these items it's as though she has discovered the Holy Grail! (The cup, not the controversial "womb" of Mary Magdalene, to all you Da Vinci Code lovers out there.) I mean look at how she holds it over her head in triumph.

And this is what happens when you "steal" the archaeological wonder off of her.You would have thought that I just told her that the Wiggles had went to that big red car in the sky.
