- Happy: Yesterday, I asked Ethan if he was happy. After pondering the question for a few seconds, he responded with, "Yeah". Then he proceeded to hop all over the family room. I guess he was hoppy.
- Bob: Today our 28th fish (we have killed 27 in the past few months) joined the family. Bob Wirt lives in a tank in our dining room. Every time Ethan passes him, he greets him by saying, "Hi, Bob."
- Yuggy Window: I asked my little guy to sing me songs in the car. Lately, I pick two words and he sings to me about them. Today I heard a nice song about the "Cool Baby".
- Boot: If he can say the word for something he owns, he becomes instantly obsessed with it. His latest obsession is his boots or as he likes to call them, his "Boo" - not to be confused with boo-boo (meaning band-aid or sticker). Yesterday, Ethan napped in his boots. Last night he slept in his boots. He would have napped in them today if he had taken a nap. I am hoping to get them off of his feet for tonight's bedtime.

Here are a few examples of why I love talking:
