You might also try saying the same phrase to her on your way out the door. We use: "Watch over the house, we'll be back soon" or "take care of your sister, we'll be back soon"...at first this makes no sense to them but eventually they associated the sounds of these words with your leaving and returning. In truth, we travel with Hans everywhere, but on those rare occassions when he can not go, he understands "...we'll be back". |
