What can you do now?
When Will started his new school year as a Glowworm, we had to fill out the obligatory new school year paperwork. Same form we'd filled out the first year he was at the Center, when he was a Roly Poly. And then the next year when he was a Ladybug (I think he's going to be a Butterfly next year). But we had one new form this year in the middle of all the various phone numbers and who can (and can't) pick up your little one. This must've been something the classroom teachers wrote themselves, not a form from the Center. All kind of questions:
My favorite food is ___.
I love it when ___.
When I'm scared I need my ____.
Your basic getting-to-know you type form. I'm the appointed form-filler-out at our house, but this one question just stumped me.:
What can you do this year that couldn't do last year?
Will's two, so he'd already hit all the big milestones, walking, talking, etc. And I was pretty braindead from all the forms... Laura's too. So I asked my husband to help me out. He's been a vague and shadowy figure in blogland so far, but this should give you a good idea about him right away. Chris said, "Will can talk in funny voices now!" as if this is the most obvious thing in the world.
Now this is hard to describe. My little two year old regularly has conversations with me or his dad in which he will say in a huge deep monster boy voice: "NO, IT'S NOT TIME FOR BATH." Or "I AM GOING TO EAT YOU UP." He is literally growling. So Chris was right. I dutifully wrote it down. By now the daycare's figured out what to think about us anyhow.
