Skills

I remember a friend posting something to Facebook asking how you teach a toddler to blow his/her nose. I think I was pregnant with Jack at the time the question was posted and it really got me thinking...and stressed. I had no idea?!?!

Well, somehow, we have managed to teach Jack to blow his nose. In fact, he has solid nose blowing skills that he likes to demonstrate multiple times a day. The only problem is that he hasn't associated having a tissue as a prerequisite for blowing your nose. So, snot and boogers get blown not only on tissues, but also on hands, books, Lovey, blankie...pretty much anything.

This is definitely an "oh well" phase for us! :)

School Projects

Jack has a school project due this Friday. The project is to visit a specific historic landmark in the city and then put together a write-up about the visit and place. Jack's location is Hamilton Grange which was the country home of Alexander Hamilton. We visited a few weeks ago (yep, we've have the assignment this long). Finally, Jack started putting together the project today. OMG, it was like watching me from 30 years ago. There was denial and defensiveness, then came tears and finally he produced really good work. If this is what the next 15 years are going to be like, we are in trouble. Also - sorry Mom, I know I tortured you with this experience many many times.
