My son is a pretty neat little guy.

Even allowing that he took all the couch cushions off the couch this evening; as mischief goes, that's minor.

See, we had friends over for board games. One of those friends, D, also plays in Scott's Friday-night Kingmaker game. So as they were leaving, we told Drew to say good bye to them.

What he said, sung out in stretched-out-words toddler enthusiasm: "Good bye! Thank you for coming over to my house!"

A little later he tried to tell D "See you tomorrow!" and D said no, but maybe Friday (that game should be Friday, but it's never wise to tell 2-year-olds something is for sure if it could change), and Drew replied, "When you come over to play games!"

Of course, D usually comes over to play games (roleplaying as Friday is, or board games like tonight) so that is not a huge stretch. But still very cool.

But seriously, "Thank you for coming over to my house!"

We do say that, but I was surprised to hear him use it so well. :)

That is very cool! He's learning fast.

He is. He also tried to remove the pin from the bottom hinge of the front door last night, but I'm somewhat less enamored of that particular sign of curiosity and intellectual growth than I am of some of the others. :P

Sounds like he's going to be an engineer. :)

I used to love taking things apart and I almost always figured out how to put them back together again. :P

He's a smart kid. Rather takes after his parents that way....

All the best.

Thanks - on several levels. :) Hope you are doing well.

Probably, yep. I'd REALLY rather he didn't take apart the door he's not supposed to go out without an adult, though. :P

Well, it's probably going to be a while yet before he can get to those upper hinges.
