Learning

Home with Declan all day. When he first got up this morning he wanted to go outside and shovel the driveway again. Lucky for him it had snowed again overnight and was needed. What a great age. In about 10 years I'll literally be dragging him outside to help me shovel.

We spent some time today learning shape, and patterns and letters. Ask him now how to spell his name and he will tell you "D E C L A N!" Proudly. He expects cheers and fist bumps.

I've also got a skilled little Jenga player. We got in a few games today and he is so observant that I can see he moves his hand just as I was and tests for a piece that has some movement.

We had a pretty good day. Especially if you ignore the two wet pant situations and a puddle on the bathroom floor.
