我就不喜欢上学了!

(all in Chinese) Enoch said he didn't like preschool today. I asked what friends went to school with him, and he gave me 3 names. I then asked if he liked those friends and had fun playing with them. He said yes. Then I explained that if he liked playing with them, and those friends were all at school, then he also must like school. Then I asked if he liked school, and he said yes. Then, he said:

那如果朋友们不上学我就不喜欢上学!

I can't believe his logic is so good! He is so smart.

我就是!

The other day I kissed / growled at Enoch as I tucked him in. He giggled and smiled in a very cute and sweet way. I said:

你知道吗?你是一个非常好的一个孩子!

He said:

我就是!

It was very cute.

I want to make them really really sad...

Today Enoch's preschool talked about Thanksgiving and his teacher told me that he didn't want to talk today. So after lunch while Enoch was playing with duplos, I asked him a question that his teacher asked in class: Enoch, what are you grateful for? 

Here is our conversation: 

Enoch: I don't know.
Me: But your teacher asked the same question at school today.
Enoch: I didn't talk at school today. (Uh-oh he knows)
Me: Why did you not want to talk today? You need to talk at school, that would make mommy and daddy really happy.
Enoch: But I want to make them really really sad...

Happy birthday to dad

The best part of my day today was coming home and opening the front door, and seeing Enoch run up to me unprompted and hug me and wish me a happy birthday. Right behind him was Michael, in his diaper, running up with wide eyes singing happy birthday to you. You boys have a good mom!
