One Day

So the other day Samuel was talking to Mommy and Daddio while we were getting ready for bed. We had just put Andy and Asher down for the night and Samuel was excited that he got to stay up 30 minutes longer than they did. We tell him it is because he is a big boy but in reality it is because Samuel and Andy will play all night long in their beds if they are both away when going down.

Anyway Samuel was talking to us and just randomly said, "I am a big boy Daddio, one day I was three and then one day I was four and became a big boy. When I was three I was not a big boy but now because of that day I am now a big boy."

It is amazing how he puts things together from what we say. We tell him that because he is 4 he is a big boy now so that he will help out with things more even though when he was 3 we told him he was a big boy then too but we did not associate it with his age.
