must be hard-wired into our DNA. I notice it all the time with Kate: whatever she doesn't have, she craves, but when she gets what she wants, she's already onto the next thing. All the moms in baby group laugh because the babies spend the entire time stealing toys from eachother, and then immediately trying to get back the one they just had. The funniest for me, though, is whenever we let Hickory outside; Hickory comes right back and wants in, while Kate stares longingly outside, wanting nothing more than to get out there. Guess we can't help wishing for all the things we don't already have!

What a great lesson to learn BEFORE the $200. tennis shoes become the object! I think you're right--we're hardwired that way. Grandma
