Cole's witty quips continue to accumulate. I find myself laughing hysterically, sometimes inappropriately, since his delivery is truly comical. It is as if he is consciously trying to be funny by his choice of words and affectations which are not at all childish or silly. Here is the latest compilation:
As we rush to the bathroom in any one of numerous public venues, I am telling him that he shouldn't wait to the last minute. He races in, not even bothering to close the door and barely gets his pants down before his stream escapes. I (and anyone else in the restroom) hears him go "ahhhh, that is so much better!".
Cole loves to play hotel these days. It began shortly after our stay in one in San Francisco. He gets our spare keys and his little computer and likes to check you in and show you to your room. He began asking standard questions, like "would you like a room with a view?" and "how many nights will you be staying with us?". Over the weeks, he has generated quite a series of questions, so checking-in is quite the process. I asked him if he would carry my suitcase one morning and he replied "no, you can do that yourself, it isn't mine", he then turned and smiled as I frowned "well lady that is the truth!"
Walking through the woods with Tucker a few weeks ago, the trees were shedding their leaves. Cole said he didn't remember why the trees had to lose their leaves and I answered "the trees need to save their energy during the winter to stay warm so they lose their leaves so that they don't have to supply energy to them, just to their core trunk and branches and then in the spring, the leaves will grow back". He retorts "well mom, that isn't very nice that they make the leaves die so that they can sleep!"
