Mainly Wednesday

Owen woke happy this morning. He immediately told me to sit when he woke, even though I hadn’t moved. He woke at some point and we fell back asleep on the couch. Ahh, to figure out how to get him to sleep through the night. Once I established that I wasn’t sitting because I was still laying down he got up to go potty. He asked about his teacher. I told him he was going to school and he said, “the weather still bad” almost more as a question. I told him that it wasn’t bad today, that he would get to go to school. It was so conversational. He felt very connected to his words and me. It brings a smile to my heart and soul. We were up early so we still had “five more minutes” until we had to go to the bus stop. It was more like an hour but everything is five minutes, two minutes, fifteen minutes, or ten minutes. He says one amount and thinking he is asking for a lot more time he says a lower number. We got dressed and walked to the bus stop. He always wants to ask Siri how to say phrases as we wait for the bus. He said, “I want bus please and rhombus in Italian”. I’m so amazed at all the words he is learning. Tonight he was talking to me in Korean, Japanese, Chinese, or something else and then singing in German with the TV. He has several videos from Taiwan that he likes to sing with so I’m not sure which language he is saying at what times. The translators can’t understand all of his words and his pronunciations may not be completely correct, plus, he is possibly speaking in several languages at the same time. I’ve always thought he sees all languages as one big language.
When he came home from school he was watching a dog language video that said want to learn to speak in dog language and then it barked. We shall see where that leads. I’m thankful for his growth and his thirst for learning. I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings. Smile so the world can see you and know that tomorrow is a brand new day. Smiles to all and donut daze!
