Words of Wisdom...

Today was another daddy day. It was quite interesting actually... Last friday when I was taking Tobias to the daycare there was another boy coming in with his mother. This kid had asked his mommy if he could play with Tobias someday. Well, of course that was fine with me. Last night she called and today we went over there and they played together. They were really nice together and we'll probably do that again.

Other than that, Tobias was a little sick, he has kind of a cold. This morning he was OK, but as I am writing this he is laying down on the couch watching his favorite movie: "Over the Hedge". He loves that movie, although it makes him somewhat violent because there is this racoon in there who tries to get food out of a vending machine by beating it with a golf club.... He now knows that people sometimes do naughty things in movies and that he should not do that himself :-). Anyway, it is a cute movie....

Ok, now about the title of this post: Words of Wisdom. Tobias' language is quite well developed for his age and sometimes he amazes me with the words he utters and the things he says. This morning for example, as I was dressing him he said: "Papa, wait, I have to think for a little bit.". So, I was like, ok, you think for a little bit. He was quiet for a while and then said: "Papa, nadenken is je mond dicht houden." (which translates into: "Papa, thinking is keeping your mouth shut."). So true and well, who knows, maybe we'll see these words of wisdom on some "quote of the day" page sometime in the future..... :-)
