The little one is picking up on work - if he visits the office with me he is the one who has to use the keys to let us in the building. We don't usually go there during normal hours - we go after hours, less disturbance this way ;-) He knows how things work in the rooms we visit. If something is missing, he asks where it is. He knows the people I work with, and expects to see them if we go to the building... when he doesn't see them, he asks where they are.
But the most amazing thing is just "he knows." Really - he is not quite four years old. (And the thought of this December bringing his 5th Christmas is doing things in my head that we won't talk about right now!) But the things he knows just amazes me. He observes and processes and remembers and knows! Places to go, people to see, items to find, how the day of the week determines what we do. Lately that last one has meant it was either a day for Mama to work or a day for Sunday School and Church Service, but the Holidays are coming and with them some well deserved time off.
Okay - so I sound like one of those Moms that are always bragging about how smart their child is or whatever - but here is the deal. My child just amazes me (I know, I'm repeating my self from above). There are things he does very well (identify capital letters), but there are things he does not (count to 20). It is watching this learning process and sharing his joy as he learns something new that is just so much fun!
So here are some pictures of him doing things he now knows- and having fun doing it. Hope you enjoy!
