Seriously Awesome!

It's so cool, I wrote about it (Week in the Life) and I'm about to blog about it. I'm cleaning up around the family room -- folding up the blanket, putting away Joey's toys...and Joey asks "Mama, does that say Qubo?" There's this new Saturday morning cartoon "Shelldon" that he asked to Tivo and he was watching it again. Well at the bottom of the screen: on the left it has 'NBC' and on the right it has "QUBO"! Oh yes!

(He has really been into the alphabets and sounding them out. He will spell out words with his blocks or use his magnet letters to sound out a random set of letters. What a very cool milestone to be witnessing!)

So, just to be sure. I asked a few questions...two minutes later, D asked a few questions to see whether or not he came up with it on his own. You know, 4-year-old's can be very sneaky & super-sneaky in a smart way. Ha! Dude, the kid came up with it on his own. When I first realized it -- I gave him a High-5! I said "that is AWESOME Joey"...and then asked, "Are you going to tell Daddy?"...sure enough, D just walked into room. Boy, are we impressed!! Too cool for words!

I have goosebumps Abs! That little light bulb in his head just keeps getting brighter and brighter. What an amazing moment :) Too funny how you thought he was just being sneaky when he really read it - lol! Love celebrating these moments with you. Love to you! xoxo
