I can't believe they let me take them home! But really what happens now? These are my thoughts as my husband and I embark on a new career, lifestyle, sleep patterns, etc. with our three kids, Jackson, Robert and Cora.

books and words
Books are sneeking into our lives. Jack is begining to incorporate phrases from books into his vocabulary. For example; the terms Mother and Father. As you know Jack calls us mama and papa but the other day Jack came in and started his question with a very seriuos 'Mother'. Mother? I have never asked him to say this or modeled it but there it was 'Mother'. I have heard this a few times in the last week so I didnt think until he followed it with 'Mother where is Father'. Father? well he is in the living room Jack. Not until he asked where Perry the dog was did I realize he was being Olivia. Olivia is one of our favorite characters and it looks like she is here for a visit. He also likes to end his sentences with 'ever' because he likes The Best Snow Day Ever. I realize when he does this how meticulous I need to be with picking books for his sponge like mind. PS my new favorite phrase he says to Rob, I show ya.

isn't it funny how they mimic the things we say & read to them? jack always says- "ahhhh yeah" when answering yes to a question. the other day i realized he does it b/c that's what i do too.
