~The Story of Us~

So…Caelan has accomplished his first real complex task on Tuesday. I’m still trying to decide whether to be proud or ashamed of it, lol. See, we usually keep some kind of movie going in his bedroom while we’re cleaning house or just hanging out. He’ll sit and watch a bit, but mostly plays and run back and forth between what we’re doing and his room.

Well, on Tuesday afternoon, Scott and I were cleaning house and had Caelan corralled in his room watching He-man on dvd. i was walking by the room and suddenly noticed a drastic change in music. Shrek the Third was about half way over….

I yelled to Scott, “Honey? Did you change Caelan’s movie?”

“Nope, why?”

O.o

Did I? No, I don’t think I change it?

“Are you sure????” Hoping.

I seriously thought I was losing my mind.

We went into his room and looked for the He-Man dvd, which happened to be on the floor. Looked at the Shrek dvd and find all kinds of finger prints and one lovely scratch. As Scott returned the dvd to the tray, Caelan promptly stood up on his Tonka truck, pushed the tray in and pressed play. Okay….maybe?

Still in a state of shock, we moved the truck and left him to his devices. About ten minutes later, as Scott was walking by his room, sure enough, he had pushed that truck back in front of the dresser, had opened the dvd player and was pulling it out to change the movie O.o

Scott commented “Wow, son. You had to choose the dvd player for your first complex skill. Thanks. It couldn’t be something I could blame Mom for, could it?” LOL

So, yeah. It’s official. Thanks Uncle Chris & Aunt Judie for the truck, it makes a great step stool for accessing trouble, lol.
