i have a confession: my kids watch a lot of tv. haven is an addict and nash just really likes it. and when i'm sick and tired it's just easier. so sue me. the good thing is that nash is actually learning quite a bit, so it helps me justify on those tv-watching-so-mom-can-get-one-thing-done days.
nash and i ran a quick errand to fedex office to print some things. afterward we got into the car and were heading home. we stopped at a stop sign and nash matter-of-factly pointed and said "that's an oxagon."
em and nash were sitting in the recliner in the sun room while em was doing some reading for school. she was reading obama's speech given to school children-the top of the paper said just that, "prepared remarks of president barack obama back to school event." nash looked at the paper and said "emmy, it's a school!" he then pointed to the word "school."
today i took nash to run a bunch of errands with me. at the last two or three stops i would tell him, "last stop and then we'll go home." but then i'd remember one more thing i needed to do and he was being so good that i ended up saying that a few times. as we finally pulled into the driveway nash exclaimed, "but we need to find the rainforest!" (dora)
he says several times a day "where should we go next?" and "that's a great idea!" (both from dora)
might i also remind you that he learned the abc's, most of his counting, spanish counting, and other randomness from the tv. it can't be all that bad, right?
