Conversation while grocery shopping...
|
Conversation with my toddler while shopping at Wally World: (btw, little d is now 2 years 9 months old) Mom, me have yist? ("list" in little d speak) No, whenever I let you hold my list, you loose it. I have a bad memory and I need my list. (all said with a kiss and a hug, lest you think I am just mean)  Me have piece yist? You want part of my list? Or just some of the blank part? (showing him i have some space with no writing) Yiss part (pointing to the blank part) I give him the piece of paper. Me have pen? Why? Me write yist. I have a list, honey. Did I forget something? No, me write mine list. Oh, well, ok. Careful not to write on anything but paper. Ok Many minutes go by as he had scooted over in the cart to write on the plastic seat flap. He is using a wonderful pencil grasp and has his tongue out just a bit. Finally he shows me a bunch of scribbles. There, mom. I done. Here. Well, sweetie. You have quite a bit on there. Why don't you tell me what it says. He holds it in one hand, and with the other runs his finger under the scribble (i am preparing myself to use "Teach your child to read in 100 easy lessons" and have been practicing how to run my finger under the word as I read to him. He has, apparently, been watching carefully.) and says: "my yist says: We need more toys". God has surely blessed me!! He is Risen, Just as He said! |
