I was talking with Mike yesterday when Jonathan tapped me to get my attention. I stopped talking to ask him what he needed and he said in a very sweet voice, "Mommy, will you please stop talking?"

Today I reminded Jonathan that he had to take his dishes over before he could go to the park to ride his bike. He got a mischievous look on his face and said, "Yesterday I leaved them on the table." I asked him who cleaned them up and he said nobody did. He is already starting to test me and see if I'll follow through.
