There You Are…

Posted on

Chase’s language capabilities are just exploding. A lot of what he says is very funny. Whenever you give him something or do something for him he says, “There you are.” Very sweet and very nice. What he means to say is “Thank You”. It doesn’t matter how much we prompt him to say thank you he always says, “There you are.”

“Chase say thank you”

“There you are”

By the way, Mojo is his best friend.

I must be doing something right…

Conversation with Austin and Brodie in the car yesterday:

A:  “Mom are you ever going to finish college”  (referring to the fact that every other year I take a semester)

Mom: “Eventually.  Right now I am a little busy.”

B:  “Do you need to finish college so you can get a job?”

A: “Brodie, she has a job.”

B:  “Oh right.  Mom your job is hard.”

Mom: “What job is that?”

B: “Taking care of us all the time.  Cleaning up after us and cooking for us.  I love your cooking.  Your rice is good.”

Mom: “Thanks.  You just picked the one food item I made last week from a package, but thanks.”

A:  “Mom, you know what is hard about your job?”

Mom:  “What would that be?”

A: “People with other jobs get to leave their job.  You work TWENTY-FOUR HOURS A DAY (said VERY dramatic).”

Mom:  “True.  I do work more hours.  But I love my job more than anything in the world.”

B: “Your job is harder than Jason’s”

Mom:  “That will be our secret”

A:  “Thanks Mom.”
