Asking him what he's learned in school and he rarely says anything. Then out of the blue he's saying the days of the week. Well that was new. So, he's learning stuff!
His school art/activities are fantastic. When we got to school this morning I got to see one of their activities hanging on the classroom wall. It was about naming their favourite thing about themselves. Declan said his favourite part of himself was his eyes "because they're not blurry and he can see."
Then he brought home his Thanksgiving activity.
While I was thrilled to see that he's thankful for me and Daddy it was surprising that in his picture he drew a "gun" in addition to drawing those things he was thankful for.
Yes he told me it was a gun. Quite casually actually.
This week we got his Halloween costume. Declan has been saying he wanted to be Darth Vader for Halloween since pretty much last Halloween. Well the costume fits and it's fantastic. He also got the red light saber. In costume he walked into the bathroom because it was dark and he could see it light up. Then he turned to me and with arm outstretched and fingers tense he pretended to use the force on me. Of course I played along because it's the best playing like you're four!
And lastly, this was a big week; Declan's toys have been moved out of the TV room and into his room. He's a big boy now and he needs his own space (and we want our own). I moved it all while he was at school so he came home to it as a surprise. Luckily it went great and Declan also loves having his things upstairs in his own room.
Our TV room just got a lot bigger.
