They're about to pass me up...

I feel like my kids are here for my entertainment until they get older; after that, they are here to support me in my old age. And that is the reason I want them be smarter than me. Which some how has happened sooner than I'd anticipated. And in spite of Little H already assuming she knows everything, I think there may be a little more to learn beyond counting to ten in Spanish and knowing how to write out her name in all caps. Maybe not, though. We'll see.

In the meantime, Buster is also starting to make such great progress. Especially with the words he's been learning. After we got past that strange stage when he thought his name was 'Diaper', and then 'You', and then said 'Welcome' instead of 'Thank you' for a couple months, his vocabulary started taking off. Also he's very good at identifying his colors (except for 'green' which seems to be the default color when he's not really sure). That means I've about maxed out my vast knowledge with him, too. As soon as I can get him potty-trained and counting to twenty, I'll have done all I can do.

oh how i love them... and you!
