This afternoon while I was cleaning up lunch, Alex was quietly drawing a picture for a new friend and he said exasperatedly from the other room, "Mommy, why can't I just do everything by myself?"
I grabbed a piece of paper and made 4 marks on the bottom of it and said, "See, you have only been learning how to do things for this long." I then made 30 marks right above his 4 and said, "I have been learning for thiiiiiiiiis long!" You learn more every day and every day you can do more and more by yourself!
A: "Yeah, see like I can write my numbers." he wrote them. "I can write my letters." he wrote those too. I learn lots don't I mommy!
