• How when you mention cookies, we say, "Cookies?!?" and you reply "O-tay!" like it was our idea.
• On that same note, how you can have a completely agreeable conversation with yourself, "Ball?...Yesss...O-tay!"
• The somewhat peculiar zone you get into when you kick a ball around.
• How, at every meal, you add something from your tray to Norman's bowl and insist that he needs a cookie too.
• How you sing "Twinkle, Twinkle" as "Weeno, Weeno..." but pronounce the "up above..." part flawlessly.
• How the smell of your breath is changing to sweet baby breath to stinky kid breath.
• How you gleefully say "Hi!" at the top of your lungs to anyone we see on our walks -- despite how grumpy they look.
• How you randomly kiss trees and insist on throwing away each and every piece of garbage you find in the park.
• How you say, "Bye bye" to the babysitter the nanosecond I walk through the door.
• When you say, "Lap!"
• When we sing, "Twinkle, Twinkle little star" to you and you request more even before we've finished.
• How, no matter how hard I try, I can't stop touching your hair.
