The other day my three year old soon to be four year old made a distinct observation. It was very intuitive of him if I do say so my self.
Recently, he has been noticing different features on people. Take for instance, a little girl at the playground had an eye patch on her eye to correct her vision, my son made the statement that she was a pirate! Ahoy, Captain! At that consideration, I explained to him that she had the eye patch on her eye to strengthen her vision in her eye and that his father had to wear an eye patch too when Daddy was a little boy. Well, in three year old wisdom, he insisted she was a pirate and I left it at that.
His opinions are becoming quite apparent especially in his philosophy of himself in the world. Showing his muscles, he always says he is STRONG and BIG using his deep macho voice. Its really quite comical. He made the observation that his little sister, who is one, is cute. I very much appreciated his love and affection he was showing for his sister but at that point I also wanted to endeavor in complimenting him he saying he was really cute, also. Upon saying this, he shocked me with his response. "Mom, I am not cute. I am wonderful." Well, I would have to completely agree with him on this. He is most the positively wonderous blessing.
