The Things He Says

Many people we meet tell us how well Tristan speaks. I've been asked does he have siblings? No I reply, just mommy and daddy, who talk to him everyday like the little man he is. I also think that all the books we have read and continue to read to him have increased his vocabulary. Tristan has been putting together sentences for a while now. But lately he comes out with the funniest things, like most kids do. As we were getting ready for bed one night Tristan decided we should play the piano. I was relagated to the last five keys on the toy aligator piano. When I attempted to go beyond my keys I was told "to be patient, you have to wait your turn". These little quips are coming more frequently. I wished I had a better memory so I can relate more. Connie told me one the other day how Tristan was trying to show mommy which keys we use to play Mr. Do. He would say "mommy look at my face mommy". And how he would grab her face and say "are you listening to me". We can't help but laugh when we relate these stories to each other.
