Quite a Conversationalist

Every day when I pick Max up at day care, as we're making our way to the car, I ask him if he had a good day (Always “Yes!”) and what he did that day… his go-to answer to questions has always been “I don't know”
Reading a book, he'll point to something and say “What's this?” and we say “What is it?” he responds “I don't know!” then thinks a moment and comes up with the correct answer, be it a color, a shape or an object.

So today, I picked him up and asked him what he did today. His answer, for the first time ever! Was an actual answer! “I played books! I played cars! I love cars!”

He spends a lot of time telling us things he loves; people at day care (both the provider, Michelle, and the other kids), foods, when he's eating them (“I looove french fries!”), things mentioned in books we're looking at (“Stinky socks! I love stinky socks!”

It's a joy to have the time in the car every afternoon, as he becomes more and more of a participant in our conversations; I know I'll miss this someday, several years from now, when I ask “What did you do at school today?” And the answer is a sullen “Nothin'”

Welcome, I'm so glad you're here! Thing number one, I'm tall. I've been told I should have a warning on my blog, so here it is! I am taller in real life than I appear on the internet. Want to know more than this "short" version? Go here to read more about me and my family, and for links to some of my favorite posts.
