this is one of scout's latest phrases,
and hearing it come out of the mouth of a 2 year old is both funny and strange.
i mean where did he learn this??
one guess: BIG brother
i chuckle often because most of the time he uses these words in the proper context
- when he doesn't get his way or when he's just mad (usually because he doesn't get his way).
i figure he's too young to get the 'life isn't fair' lecture so instead i just scoop him up,
give him the biggest squeeze i can and plant kisses all over him.
he quickly forgets how terrible life is at two. *smile*
i wish i could capture him saying this on video and i will try,
but for now, i have it written down here, to remember him at age 2,
using his new found words as he learns to express himself.
he especially enjoys the reactions his gets from "using his words".
he's full of personality - alot like finn, but very different too.
he went from not speaking much at age 2 to a very talkative 2 1/2 year old.
our days are filled with simple conversations now.
and it's like a whole new world is open to us us.
he tells me what he does in school, talks about miss rosie (his teacher) incessently.
last week he tells me "miss rosie says i have a yucky cough".
one did come on and he was home the next 2 days because of it.
another day upon picking him up he tells me "miss rosie says you forgot my water".
um, yes i had forgotten to put his thermas in his lunchbox. oops!!
he's no longer a toddler, my scoutie.
he is a bold and beautiful little boy who is growing up right in front of me.
a little boy who makes my heart so full.
this is scoutie's typical stance and pouty face when he doesn't get his way.
it's usually followed with an emphatic "it's not fair" with an "umph" after it.

this has been the worst of the terrible twos so far.
i have no complaints, at least not yet. *grin*
