where are my ears?

He captures you with his warm brown eyes and his cutie shy grin. He is all verbal with some boy noises for his car but man, my ears where glowing red with alll his words! His favorite question? 'What ...?' What are you doing? What is that? exact words the pups know and Andy is up barking. He even would know the answer! No wonder my mom creates stories and words for little kids and for big kids too. I am going to have to get my stories sharpened to keep him mentally occupied with losing mine! When he wasn't getting his way, he would start in about 'where is his daddy?' Yikes! what do you say? I told the truth and hoped that he wouldn't go into full blown tears! He ripped my heart out by saying 'daddy left me.' No, my dear, he is coming to get you! He is one smart cookie too. He can tell the difference between Bobby and Andy, our toy fox terriers. He loved to help me with closet cleaning and doing laundery but oh, not to pick up his toys. I swear for being a boy he has full command of his words! I struggled with his language. I would repeat what I thought he was saying and no, I would get it wrong. You know Thomas the train? James is his favorite not Thomas! Everytime I would say Thomas ... no James! Oh, and he would tell me what he had at his house. I was eating an orange and he wanted some too. I loved how he would refer to the orange as wet. I would say 'juicy' and he looked at me with such eyes and say juicy with a giggle attached to it. Loved that moment. One last thing! It was potty weekend let me tell you. He is learning to do his thing in the potty and not the diaper. I did a lot of potty talk with letting the boys out and having him have his potty time. I did force the issue Friday night. Glad I did. I would not have liked taking care of that diaper. By the next day he was telling me he wanted to go. The draw was the red star and green christmas tree marshmellows Grammie had gotten for him. Let me introduce you to my 2 and half nephew!
