This is one of my favorite things about little boys...I can walk into any room in the house and I will find random lineups of cars on the windowsills, the dining room hutch, the couch, a chair, etc. Chase will just spend hours moving his cars around the house and lining them up. He is so careful and methodical about it. I never know where a line of cars will show up next. It's such a great reminder that a little boy lives here. At the end of the day there are always cars all over the house BUT I wouldn't trade his joy in doing this for anything! :-)
Sometimes he pulls out the big guns to move all his cars from one place to the next. He's a smart one!
There are moments when Chase decides the cat would much rather wear Chase's sunglasses around his stomach. (If Chase will give him attention Smokey is more than willing to put up with this. The glasses incident didn't even faze him.)
Then, there are moments like this, when Chase is completely engrossed in one of his books. He will "read" aloud to himself, touch all the pages he's supposed to and want nothing more than to cuddle and read some books with me for a while. He proudly tries to point to all the letters in his ABC book and recite them to us. We get A,I,E,B and a bunch of letters that are jibberish. He is so proud of himself for being able to point out the letters on his own.
It is a challenging time with him, to be sure, but it is also a wonderful time that is going by quicker than we can sometimes handle too.
