Hi all.  Since Michael's more mobile, he likes to get into everything and I
used to be able to read to him from my Pac Mate without a problem.  Now,
he's constantly trying to push buttons on my Pac Mate or my laptop when I'm
using them.  I figured out how to lock the keyboard on my Pac Mate so he
won't screw anything up.  Is there an effective way to minimize or stop this
behavior?  One thing I've tried is this: when I'm reading and he comes up to
my Pac Mate, I stop reading and I turn my face in another direction so I'm
not looking in his direction.  When he leaves my Pac Mate alone and goes off
to play with something else, I start reading again.  I'm sure this is
probably a phase that we just have to get through so any help would be
greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
