He went right at the puzzles of the vehicles today and went to putting them together. I was blown away by his ability to put all of the front halves of the vehicles with the matching rear halves. Monkey was more than willing to help out, however Big C held his own and made sure that he had a dozen matches. He was particularly adept with the police car, the ambulance and the fire truck - no surprise. Thanks Aunt H and Uncle Big Monkey!
Then we had a little snack before our morning activity. We had a fruit salad of melon, blueberries and blackberries. I was shocked by 2 events. First, Big C went for the melon before the berries. I've never seen that before but will now keep melon stocked in the house on a more regular basis. Second, Big C shared a lot of his blackberries with Monkey. He offered them up of his own free will and shared them with his big brother. He received lots of praise for being a 'good sharer' and a 'wonderful little brother'. Keeping his food issued in mind I was overjoyed when he then went on to finish his fruit and then a good deal of french toast.
What little angels!
