Taking the boys to daycare often means keeping them talking so they aren’t fighting. This morning on the way to daycare, I mentioned that one of the stoplights was out because of last night’s storm. Jonah then yelled out the color of the next stoplight he saw. I pointed toward the area of trees next to the road and asked him “What color are those trees Jonah?” to which he replied “Green!”. “Good job!” I said. “What color is the grass?” I asked. “Green!” he replied emphatically.

About that time Levi piped up and said “Trees aren’t green.”. Wondering how detailed he’d thought about it, I asked “What do you mean Levi?”. “Trees are brown, the leaves are green.” he replied.

I thought that was pretty observant for a 3yr old.
