AAGGHH! It's a Snike!!

Okay, before you e-mail me and tell me I spelled something wrong, read on... Upstairs in our bonus room we have an art easel that the boys like to draw on. Today Carson told me to come up so he could show me something. He had filled up the whole side of the easel with pictures and words he had written. So, as I'm reading it says, "A Big Snike" and then there's a picture of a snake. I read it out loud and praised him for such a good job, but the teacher in me said, "Sweetie, that's wonderful, but I think you spelled snake wrong." And, as always, Carson rebutled with, "No, mom, I can speak Australian." Now, I am going to give you a minute to let that soak in and listen to yourself carefully as you say it out loud---- now you can laugh!
That child never ceases to amaze me--- and make me laugh! On our way home from Chik-Fil-A tonight he asked me what the International Dateline was???? Keith and I are in so much trouble!

I thought so!!! Yesterday he wrote down all the "languages" he could speak-- Spanish, "Hola," French, "Bon Jour," Chinese, "Konichiwa," and Australian, "G'day mate"!

Oh, wow! That is best story I've heard in a while! And I work with preschoolers! Children are wise beyond they're years- I learn something new everyday! I'm an old high school friend of Bethany's...unless you're wondering who the blog-stalker is! Your boys are so precious!

I meant to type "in case you're wondering"...not unless.
