The M&M Story

Fall fun Originally uploaded by smaynor

Lately, Max has discovered that words can sound the same but actually be different words. The list is growing. Today he said, "Hey, Mom, can and can are the same words but mean different things. Like when you can do something and like a can you put something in." Tonight, while reading one of our favorites, Animalia , he said, "Hey Mom, bee and B are the same words but mean different things. Like a bee that goes buzz and the letter B." Though he's slow as molasses (like his daddy), he gets excited at his discoveries and rattles them off so quickly, I sometimes have to ask for a repeat.

We celebrated Brian's birthday this year with a little bowling and ice cream. Oh, and some tattoos.
