Learning that English isnt a very nice language…
Posted by: | CommentsSam gets homework from pre-school where he has to find pictures of certain letters. Monday’s lesson is for words that begin with ‘K’. This is turning out to be tougher than Sam originally thought. He’s found a picture of a card, a computer, and a crayon. He sounds out what he sees in the picture, only to be shot down by the correct spelling.
He finally turned to me and said, ‘Dad, if the they wanted all these words to sound alike, why aren’t they spelled the same?’
Making sure everyone is safe…
Posted by: | CommentsTonight I was playing with the boys downstairs and Sam wanted to build a fort. So I helped him with the blanket and the pillows he had set up. Sam was proud of what he built and said I needed to see the inside of his fort. As I climbed in I said it was a very nice fort and very comfy. Sam said, and I quote, “I built it to protect all of us from the sun’s harmful UV rays.”
Nice to know your son is looking out for you.

A good morning for Sam…
Posted by: | CommentsSam feels like he hit the jackpot today. On the drive over to daycare we usually listen to a playlist of Sam and Evan’s favorite songs. The songs come up totally random off the playlist… basically a no fuss music selection.
This morning the first three songs that played were literally Sam’s #1, #2, and #3 favorite songs. He was just beaming with happiness as we pulled into daycare.
