I can always tell when something has hurt Tyson's feelings. He has a hard time getting his sentences out, and looks to the ceiling, blinking many times- every time. Today was no different.
"Mom...Caden said that he would let me play on his phone...if I went and got him...the things you clip your nails with. But...he said he needed his phone...and I still had six seconds of time...and he just took the phone away. ...My time ran out because of him!"
He was so close to tears. It was hard not to laugh, hard to keep my serious face intact. Six seconds, people. He was almost crying because he missed out on six seconds of playing his game.
I am in trouble, come teen years.

While pumping gas today, he told me that it stopped at $5.25, although he said it stopped at five-hundred twenty five. I ultimately spent $41.72. Tyson announced to everyone that I spent "Four Thousand, One-Hundred and Seventy-Two dollars on gas!" Man, this kid astounds me with his numbers. I didn't know he knew the Thousands place value! I guess I better teach him about currency values.

With this being the last full week of summer, we've been getting our supplies, clothes, and backpacks ready for school to begin on the 1st for everyone, but Tyson. He begins on the 3rd. Tyson has shown NO interest in getting ready for Kindergarten. None. He just walks around all of the supplies arranged on the floor (we gathered all of the supplies we already owned and went 'shopping' from there. Then we went to the store for the stuff we didn't get sent home at the end of last year) to sit on my lap and snuggle. I asked him if he was excited to start school. "Um...I don't know how I feel about this all-day school."
Ty, I couldn't agree with you more!
