Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.

Life with a toddler is like a box of chocolates. You never know what they are gonna sprout.

Jayden is able to string words together very well and its quite frightening sometimes to hear what he says. Not that its gibberish or anything, but to see the way he picks up on ideas. Like how he has nicknamed the maid at an aunt’s place “Honey Star Aunty” (her name is Honey) or how he told us “Jayden no strength to switch off tv. Ask the maid to do it.” (we do NOT have a maid at home).

He is very quick on catching words and remembering them. Even if you just mention them once. He picks it up. He has learnt ‘boring’ and right now, we are telling horror stories of what might happen. We can just picture it right now… First day in school and he goes “boring” straight in the teacher’s face. Not quite the best of methods to get in the teacher’s good books.

I foresee many such “throw face” moments to come. Stay tuned. Now where did the non-vocal boy of mine go to?
