The other day I was in the kitchen making something to eat. Soren was sitting on the floor in the middle of the hallway/living room. I glanced over to check on him and saw he had something in his hand and maybe in his mouth. Not knowing what it was, I told him firmly (but gently) from the other room not to put whatever it was in his mouth. When I got over to where he was I found a little roach, struggling to right itself, lying next to him on the floor. I explained that the roach was an "uh oh" and that we
"don't eat" roaches. To which Soren responded, "Don't eat! Don't eat!" Incredulous, I asked him, "Did you just say 'don't eat?'" "Don't eat!", he replied.
WoW! His first words?
ReplyDeleteI guess because it was so dramatic, he had to respond?
Only in New Mex would a childs first words be about roaches.
