Just when I think he is not paying attention...
My strong-willed, extremely hyper, jittery, and all-over-the-place son starts blending words, after so many days that I felt like he was never going to get it. AND, tonight, he reminded me that, "We did not read Reddy Fox today!" Oh no! We were so busy, I totally forgot about it today. He said, "Mom, that means we have to do 2 tomorrow." I'm SO happy to hear this b/c sometimes you wonder how much they enjoy it, or are paying attention to their first experience with a non-picture book! I love it! This program is so wonderful. We had the BEST time talking about snakes today, even though I was totally grossed out. He loves snakes and frogs, so the past few days have been great. I love how much he's absorbing, even if he doesn't always act like it!

So happy for you. My middle child is a lot like your son. Some times I feel like I'm talking to a brick wall. Then all of a sudden she just gets it. At least it's never boring! Hope you guys have a great tomarrow.

This is so true, isn't it!
Those little ones often surprise us with their knowledge when we least expect it!
My little one just realized that Reddy Fox is also in his Peter Cottontail book (which is the second storytime book in LHFHG). He had such a look of wonder as he connected the characters in the two books. I love moments like that!
Blessings,
