Little Genius

On Saturday, we were all driving home from the store when Lennox did something that made Mark and I tear up and almost pull over to the side of the road. We heard him the backseat counting. As I have already said in my posts, he can count to 10. Well, all of a sudden we hear 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16. Every number as clear as day! Mark and I stopped between every number holding our breath, waiting to hear the next number. We were so excited and started clapping and shouting in the car. Lennox had a giant grin on his face. So sweet. We have known from day one that our Lennox was super smart, but it is always nice to have some reassurance, especially like this.

This weekend we went to Disney World. So much fun. I will post the pics tomorrow. Tonight we went out to dinner with my grandmother, "gran" to Lennox. He showed off his smart stuff for her, singing the ABC's in the car, along with "Bringing Home a Baby Bumblebee," "Wheels on the Bus," and "Five Little Monkeys." He was a perfect angel at dinner, reading a book with mommy. Dr. Seuss' There's a Wocket in My Pocket. He recited the book with me and we haven't even read it that many times. We are constantly amazed at what he knows! Then he cuddled with gran while daddy worked on gran's computer. He was tuckered out this evening. Already two weeks into school and he has a cold and a nasty cough again. My poor croupy baby. We are hoping it passes quickly!
