He does listen!

William has done a few things that have tickled me lately. We go to story hour each week and each week William picks out books to check out. We read them throughout the week and I always tell him the title of the book and the author. The books we have this week are "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" by Michael Rosen and "Aaarrgh, Spider!" by Lydia Monks (and, well, he also picked out "My little Pony" and quite frankly it is his favorite). Last week he spontaneously told me the author of "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" and today he requested we read "Aaarrgh, Spider!" by telling me the title and the author. That is just proof he is always listening.

Another thing he did--I ran into Pet Smart to get Zoe's food and left William in the car with Lauren and Neenee. At the check out they had logo frisbees for a dollar (William loves frisbee) so I got one for William. I gave it to him in the car and laughed when I told him I bought him a dog toy. The next day we were driving home from grocery shopping and William was holding his frisbee and laughing in his seat behind me. So I asked what was funny and he said " mommy, you bought me a dog toy!"

Of course he listens! That is what well-mannered, good little boys do! You are raising him the right way. Isn't it nice to see all of your hard work and devotion to your babies paying off?!
