Sonya Factor

There is a popular TV series called Fear Factor that centers around contestants performing embarrassing, frightening, and disgusting acts in a quest to be the most daring. Each show is a series of three stunts, a physical challenge, an emotional challenge usually about eating something disgusting, and another physical challenge.

Sonya must have seen this, for recently she has been upping the ante of her antics. First, she developed a new game. Basically she smiles at Lisa or myself while posing on her knees an arm's length away from one of us. Then she throws herself backwards and laughs watching one of us leaping to catch her head. She rolls around on the ground laughing afterwards. Her next gag was to eat pizza. She ate a whole slice, less the crust. No small feat for this little toothless wonder. Lastly, she decided that she should be aggressive at daycare and try rolling the younger babies across the room. The daycare attendants are positively thrilled with this engaging activity and the screams of terror it causes.

All in all, a good week for Sonya Factor. A little much for her parents. A little preview of what is to come, we fear.
