A New Awareness

Posted on July 16, 2008 - Filed Under Uncategorized |

Dorian has been showing some interest in bigger concepts lately and it`s really fun to listen to him. Here is a sampling of some of the convos we`ve had in the past few days.

Dorian: “Mama, I`m mad.”
Me: “Oh, you`re mad?”
Dorian: “Yes. I`m mad. Dante hit me. I`m very mad.” makes angry face

Me: “Look, Dorian, I`m cutting this leaf into a heart.”
Dorian: “Oh, that`s very nice, but I want stars.”

Dorian (to Dante who was stuck in a drawer): “Oh, you have owies? Oh, dear. Poor Dante.”
Dante: “MAMA!”
Dorian: “Ohhhh! You want a hand?” (helps his brother out of the drawer)

Dorian: “Goodness, Dante! You really smell bad!”

He`s suddenly realizing that he can help people out, name his feelings, direct people`s actions with words and note senses. I know this is something every kid goes through, but it`s just so cool to see firsthand!
