The long awaited Grandparent visit began yesterday. As it was 8pm Jack was well asleep but night-owl Luke was still up and watching out the window as they pulled up. Luke's language has shot ahead in the time since they last saw him and although he had never shown any clear awareness of what 'Granny' & 'Grandpa' meant before when they walked in the door he was there to meet them clammouring 'Gran-Car Gran-Car' When Jack was the same age he called Grandpa 'Grandma' so at least it's an improvement |

Luke is no longer a baby and his new independence is marked with the constant refrain of 'I do it'. Sometimes he needs a little help and it doesn't seem to hurt his pride if I conveniently place a bag where he can stand on it to get height. Luke also stops & goes back to shut the doors we go through although sometimes he does campaign to be carried |

Luke's language it gaining in sophistication and he is pretty good at getting him message across. He is frequently to be seen standing at our feet reaching up and saying 'pick it up'. We correct him 'Pick me up' and Luke invariantly responds 'yersh' in that wonderful tone he has that seems to say 'See Mummy - I knew you could do it" |

Jack explained to me very seriously today that I have two bottoms but he only has one. Perhaps my neckline was too low, because he pointed to it and told me that I have a bottom on my tummy whereas he only has one on his bum. |

Having forgotten Jack's lunchbox this morning I shot down to daycare just before lunch to take it in. When I got there the kids were sitting on the mat singing. Sharon (the teacher) got them to sign their last song & say their little 'thanks for the food' sort-of-prayer. She then said that Jack, Dylan and Keira could get up first and go and wash their hands. Jack stood up and turned to Sharon very seriously and said "Can I give my Mummy a hug first" - awww |
