Couple different anecdotes – mama’s on the blog
November 9, 2009[Note from Ryan--This was actually done on April 13, but I just realized it was never approved. Going to work with Sara to make sure she has access to blog here for the exciting months to come!]
Hi all! Ryan hooked me up so that I can contribute now. Hopefully, it will just help us remember even more fun stuff.
So two, tiny stories for my debut – both from this morning. Gamaw (Ryan’s mom) was in town for the weekend. She has a VW bug (consequently, all VW bugs are known as “Gamaw cars”). Besh has a miniature model of one. When he woke up this morning and realized she was heading back to California, he suspended his Gamaw car on a plastic drumstick (so that it looked like wings). He then said, “this is Gamaw’s airplane. It’s taking Gamaw back to California.”
The second event happened on the drive to school this morning. Besh has known the Spanish words for the colors red, blue, green and yellow for over a year. Today, we passed by Chuck E. Cheese and he said, “Mommy – that’s the yellow Chuck E. Cheese. There’s a yellow Chuck E. Cheese and a purple one. That’s the amarillo (sp?!) one.” Then, he thought about it for a second and said, “what’s the Spanish word for purple?” We asked his wonderful teacher when we got to school. We now know the word is “morado (sp?!)”.
