I was cleaning out my bookshelf yesterday and found this written in an abandoned spiral notepad intended for writing my "personal history" (that I clearly never did....) But here was my first entry from October 15, 2013. (The Frog was just barely 5)
I love having kids that can now narrate their thoughts. They often have the most interesting perspective.
I can't remember now what exactly was going on, but I think I was probably quizzing Jack on some simple addition. He still used his fingers to solve these problems and had miscounted. I probably indicated in some vague way, that he should maybe count again. He was dead certain of his answer and so I showed him with my fingers the correct answer. His reply was a moan, "Why are you always right? I can't wait until I'm 6 and I know everything!"
