Happy Mirthday, Rowan!

Today marked Rowan's 32-month birthday! Only four months until he turns 3. Wowie zowie! He is as amazing as ever, and loves to talk, talk, talk. (I have no idea where he gets that from.) His story telling abilities get sharper each week and his sense of humor is quite keen. If I may brag on him further, he is also a clever little monkey. Here's a conversation he had with Jeremy just his morning. He was eating a PB&J sammich and watching a TV show that mentioned honey bees.

R: What's a honey bee, Daddy?

J: Honey bees make honey, Rowan.

R: [thinks for a minute...] Daddy, do jellyfish make jelly?

That boy is wicked smart, I tells ya. Here's another for you. Jeremy was giving Rowan a bath the other night and told him a fib "to try to manipulate his behavior" as Jeremy put it. Rowan proceeded to tell him that he "didn't just fall off the torn up truck." We have no idea where he learned that one. His brain is a mighty computer, receiving and storing data for future use. I am constantly amazed and impressed with this special little human.

Happy birthday wishes to my sweet boy!
