Talking to Luke

He talks with his hands, is easily frustrated, and reasons in ways that confuse. He is my son.

He frequently forgets he likes vegetables, so I take pictures of him eating them to prove it to him. Here it's green beans. I just realized he's wearing the same shirt, even though this was months ago.

St. Patrick's Day 2013

Another picture day in the Schooling house! Henry's shirt says My 1st St. Patrick's Day and Luke has a shirt on that says Mom's Lucky Charm. I know there's a lot of pictures in this post, but I can't decide which to include so I just put my favorites. If you want a larger size you can click on the pic or email me the number/name of the one you want and I'll email you a bigger one.

The kids lately

Henry is cute and teething. Luke says the weirdest, funniest things. I can't even remember half of what he says, he talks sooooo much. He even says that, "I love to talk ma-ee". I find him saying things that make me think, who taught him to say that? Usually it's stuff I say. Lately his favorite sentences are "are you thinking what I'm thinking?" (which has some funny response when you ask him what he's thinking), and "I had no idea" (really emphatically), or "ma-ee, I have a problem, I have a question for you..." Or "not today, but someday" when you ask him to do something like come to the dinner table. He has a hard time repeating certain things, like Caper Acres (a local playground) is Raker Rakers. He gives himself surprises. Like he hides a toy in a box then presents it to me and says "look ma-ee! It's a surprise for me! Wow!". He asks 437 questions a day, even things he knows answers to, just because he likes to talk. He told me not to touch a gas can (empty) because I'd explode and catch on fire. You think he's not listening when you warn him about stuff, but he is. He goes for walks with Jared's tools. One time he went for an hour walk with me carrying a stud finder, beeping it the whole way. Another walk was with an empty gas can. I gave him 3 pennies and he started buying things in our house. He wanted a flashlight and I told him to give me 1 penny for it, and he didn't want it anymore.
