He was super excited about his accomplishment, and spent several minutes searching for more cars to add to the line up. I love this two-year-old phase of organizing, picking up, lining up, and repetition. During lunch the same day, Elijah repeated over and over and over "Mom, where are you?" in his cute two-year-old voice. Even though I was standing there the whole time. Answering. "I'm right here." And taking a video. Once I figure out how to get it off my phone and onto the blog, I may do that. At one point he gets excited to eat some cucumber slices and repeats "pepino" several times. I feel really good about this because it means I'm not a complete slacker when it comes to teaching my kids Spanish.
My children and I have a hard time playing with each other because, while they have their own very rigid agendas about what playing with their toys means, I just want to do this:
Elijah and Rose were pretty excited that I was playing with them at all, and that it didn't involved picking up games. Although Elijah did fight with me for his turn to vacuum. Two-year-old. I hope it lasts.
Then they went back to launching cars and everyone was happy. The end.
