I'll Count You

Whenever I want Oaklin to pick up his toys, go grab his coat or pretty much do anything fast I say, "Hurry I'll time you". This gets him running and makes the task fun.

This morning, as I was getting Oak ready for school, he asked to wear his new shirt. I told him it was upstairs in the dryer. I suggested we go up and put it on. To my delight, he replied "Will you go get it please"  accompanied by the biggest puppy dog eye's you've ever seen. Then he added "Hurry I'll count you". Before I got out of the room he was already to 3 Mississippi. When I returned, he said Wow Aunt Daja you got 62 Mississippi's!

I sure love this kid.
