		<description><![CDATA[I posted a list of his first words almost a year ago: http://therickabys.com/blog/2011/05/30/johns-becoming-a-little-talker/ But I thought an update would be good. He actually talks pretty much constantly at home even though he&#8217;ll hardly say a peep around anybody else. There&#8217;s no way to list all of his words, but here are a few of the phrases he&#8217;s been using lately. Me do it. How do dat? (used when he wants to understand how to work just about anything) Mines (even though he&#8217;s using it wrong, he does seem to have picked up on adding an &#8220;s&#8221; to the end of&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Let&#8217;s see, it&#8217;s not quite lunch time and John&#8230; Pulled my new phone out of my pocket, put it in the box is came in and said &#8220;safe&#8221; Figured  out how to unlock the phone and screamed for five minutes when I took it away. I asked him if it broke his heart and he said &#8220;yes.&#8221; Played with his &#8220;phone&#8221; and put it in the case I have for mine. Disassembled the fort I built for him. Insisted on having the light off. Sat in my lap, bumping my arm around so I can&#8217;t click the mouse on anything&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had a conversation with Megan last week that I&#8217;m betting the majority of our grandparents didn&#8217;t have to have with their six-year-olds. We were reading her Sabbath school lesson one evening. It was about creation and we were pointing out that God had created a &#8220;Mom&#8221; and a &#8220;Dad&#8221; to be the parents of everyone in the world. She said &#8220;Well, sometimes there are two moms.&#8221; (She used to go to daycare with a boy who had two moms.) So I said as matter-of-fact as I could, &#8220;Yes, sometimes that happens. And sometimes there are two dads.&#8221; She looked&#8230;]]></description>

Would you or Father be so kind as to release me from the place of my imprisonment?&#8221; &#160; On another note&#8230; we were coming home after buying some chore prizes for Megan from the dollar store and she suddenly and mater-of-factly said from the back seat: &#8220;Oh, this was made in China.&#8221;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We have a little toy house that came with three blocks. A baby, a mommy and a daddy. They fit in the top of this house and when you push the block in, it sings a little song depending on which one you put in. The baby one sings a song that ends with &#8220;shhh&#8230; baby&#8217;s sleeping.&#8221; At that point John took it out and put it in his bed. Then found a stuffed animal to put in there with it. A little bit later I wrapped his baby doll up in a blanket and he put it in his&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Megan had her first day at school yesterday. She had lots of fun and met friends, but she can&#8217;t remember their names. Made friends with a girl that *gasp* didn&#8217;t want to play princess! Somebody didn&#8217;t like her glasses, but it doesn&#8217;t bother her. When Moogie asked if she learned anything new, she said &#8220;no, we talked about the letter M, but I already know that.&#8221; There was apparently also an older boy who played ball with her for a little while at after-school care. It&#8217;s interesting the little snippets of the day that we hear about. When we first&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our church is doing a summer day-camp sort of thing called Summer Exporations, but it&#8217;s in the evenings from 5-8:30 with dinner included, so working parents can participate. It&#8217;s been really fun for Megan. Last night I heard something interesting from one of the volunteers&#8230; Apparently Megan won a Who Can Be Quiet Longest contest&#8230; Both Matt and I said &#8220;OUR Megan???&#8221; I tried that in the car once and she didn&#8217;t even make it for 30 seconds!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Megan&#8217;s been excited to learn how to count to 100. While reviewing a first grade workbook (which she finished in a month with little instruction from us!) Matt was explaining thousands, millions, billions and so on to her. Yesterday on the way home from daycare, she counted to 100, then continued: &#8220;101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109&#8230; 1000! 1001, 1002, 1003, 1004, 1005, 1006, 1007, 1008, 1009, 1 MILLION!&#8221; Then went on that way to billion, trillion and zillion. &#8220;Um&#8230; Megan, I think you missed a few numbers.&#8221;]]></description>
