Long, long ago...

Josiah, my three-year-old is going through a developmental leap in which he's remembering events more clearly. Up until this year, each Christmas has been a new event, completely unrelated to anything that had happened to him before. I think we're past that phase. Two conversations I had with him this week:

Josiah: Mommy, remember when I was a little kid and we dropped the eggs in the cups and they turned different colors?

Mommy: Yes, we were dying Easter eggs.

Josiah: Let's do that again. In the morning. Tomorrow.


Josiah: Mommy, remember when I was a little kid and we went camping and slept in the tent?

Mommy: Yes, that was just a couple months ago.

Josiah: Let's do that again. That was fun.


I find it hilarious that this little three-year-old guy keeps referring to things as "when I was a little kid".
