Fasterfaster

Driving home from school yesterday in 'Will's lit-tel (that's how he says little) silver carrrr.' - i.e. the Matrix.

Came to a stop light and a long line in front of us. Will was eager to get home, I suppose and said 'GoGoGoGo'. I said 'Ohhh, we can't go until the light turns green and everyone in front of us goes.'

He looked down and then up and said 'drive on the sidewalk, Mama!'

I didn't teach him sidewalk and I don't think matt did either. wow.

French

Told dad and matt, but the phone rang yesterday afternoon as we were having lunch. The house phone, which only family calls on, basically. Will yelled ‘I get it! I get it!’ and runs over to get it. I said ‘awesome, you get it!’

He picks up and says (without prompting) ‘hello’?! I heard a wonderful woman’s voice on the other end…and realized it was Isabelle Miard. I said ‘Will, it’s Mamian…Sophie’s mom in France!’ His eyes lit up and he just listened to her beautiful French. I said ‘Will, how do you say Moon in French?’ (he is still holding the phone) ‘LA LUNE!!!’ I hear Isabelle on the other end say ‘Bravo Will!!’ Then I said ‘What do we say before we eat?’ ‘Bon Appetit!’ he yells, with a silly inflection at the end. She was DYING.

He then decided he was done with talking and handed the phone off to me…anxious to run off and play with his baseballs.

Awesome.
