Two year olds...

I am simply amazed, on a day to day basis, at what my two year old is capable of.  Whether it be standing on a rocking horse, while holding two color pencils in the middle of a dark room .  No, I didn't make that up!  Or falling off of the toliet.  She is a never ending wealth of laughter and puzzlement.

Sometimes she does things that make me go, "Wow, my kid is a genius!"--like her ability to tell you the names and sounds of over 10 animals.

Then there are the times when I go, "Poor, kid!"---like when she got stuck in the laundry hamper and couldn't figure out how to get out.

There are other times that I laugh out loud at the things she says---she, for about three weeks would say "tank you, weecome" all in one breathe anytime somebody gave  her something.  Now she says it correctly but still says "La-Tue" for "love you and it melts my heart.

But most of all, when I think of my two year old (and my amazing 10 year old who has already passed the hilarious toddler stage!)  I think of how blessed I am.  And how I can't wait to see what they are going to do day to day!

BTW---funny two year old story for Sam (so he doesn't feel left out)---when he was two we were walking to the car on our way to day care.  There was a lizard (very small, green geiko) on the car.  Sam starts freaking out, screaming, "Addy-gader!  Addy-gader"!  I calmly explain to him that it is a lizard, not an alligator.  He calms down somewhat until we get in the car and he screams again.  I stop and turn around to see what is the matter.  He is holding his finger up and screaming, "The addy-gader! The addy-gader done bit me momma!"  And we heard about the addy-gator bite for weeks.  LOL!
