Yes School or No School?

Miles is so into driving these days. He just can't wait until he's big enough to drive my car! Almost everyday on the way to school he says something about it and talks about where everyone will sit when he gets to sit in my seat. He also recently realized that something is happening to make the car stop and go that he can't see me doing. So he asked how do we stop? So I told him about the brake peddle. Then a few days later, he asked how we went. So I told him about the gas peddle. He now confirms this knowledge almost daily while we are in the car. Then today on the way to school, he asked me how we stop when we're at school. I realized he meant when we get out of the car and explained the park position on the gear shift. He was so excited to get to school and see what I meant and laughed out loud when I showed him shifting into park. He's such a curious sponge!

It's also funny now that he's going to school again full time. Every morning when he wakes up, he asks me "Yes school or no school?". He seems to be fine with either answer, although towards the end of his first full week, he was saying he wanted to stay home. He's doing really well in the mornings at school now. Sometimes, even when he was full time before, he'd cling to us in the morning in the classroom and not want to let us go. The past few days, he's walked into his classroom himself without me carrying him and hasn't put up much, if any, fuss. Such a big boy!

He's also really into "owies" these days. He's had a few scrapes and scratches now and tells me all about them. He can barely move the limb the owie is on because it might hurt it. He's so dramatic!
