Sometimes it really surprises me how grown-up Tyler sounds, and makes me wonder where he comes up with this stuff. I know he absorbs everything he hears, but sometimes his turn of phrase surprises me. Kevin, Ty and I were having dinner last night, when all of a sudden Tyler jumps down off of his chair and says to Kevin “daddy, are you thinking the same thing I’m thinking?” Kevin replied “I don’t know, what are you thinking?” and Tyler ran over to the train table, threw his arms out wide and said “PLAY!!!!”.
After playing at the train table for about five minutes, Kevin says to Tyler “Ty, are you thinking what I’m thinking?”, and Tyler, without looking up or missing a beat, replied “of course not”. I was totally ROTF!
