Abi, the mute Napolean

Abi is very communicative, and bossy.  She grunts, points, and expects her will to be done.  It usually is.  Recently, she has expanded her dominion.  She now leads people by the hand to where she wants them to go (and if that doesn’t work, she’ll push them behind their knees.)  Here, she leads her cousin Semra to the living room to play.

She’s also been leading Daddy by the hand when she wants him to open a door for her.  First, she’ll point to the door knob because she knows he can open it.  If that doesn’t work, she just pushes him into the door because she knows he can get through it.  She also pushes older children at the playground around.  Thus far, no one has complained.
