Growing up......some more

I just dropped Caleb off at Mothers Day Out and we were met at the door by a very excited, sweet little blond boy that squealed "that's Caleb!" to the teacher. "Oooh," she said "I wasn't sure which one you were talking about". Apparently he had been asking her where Caleb was and was so excited to see him. It's was so sweet to see another kid excited to see my child (by the way, his name is Aaron). It's fun to see Caleb making friends and playing with them and I'm glad he has a little buddy at MDO.....yet it's one more reminder that he is growing up. Sigh.

Oh, and both last night before bed and this morning Caleb "pee-peed in the potty". He even told us that he needed to use it. I didn't really expect him to do anything when he went to sit on it. In fact, I had reminded myself to act excited and proud of him just for sitting on it. So I mustered up as much excitement as I could (keep in mind I've been up all night because I had to work....zero breaks....and stayed an hour late...boo hoo). So when I saw yellow, I probably overdid the excitement since I had psyched myself up and was really genuinely excited.

Caleb is also getting really good at recognizing letters, he knows most of his colors, and he is continuing to improve on counting. Today he saw a 2 red cars and said "red car....two red cars". Genius. (P.S. Funny....I spelled genius wrong and spellcheck caught it. Glad I used that this morning! Ha ha!)
