Alyson has been growing and so has her vocabulary, both in sign language and in words. Well with me getting more and more shop time lately, it was bound to happen and today she finally put everything together. As we worked on fixing a couch arm rest, she "helped" me and toyed with some of my tools. Then she looked at me and said...
"Daddy ools out in op."
Translation for those of you that don't have two year olds..."Daddy's tools are out in his shop."
First I just had to hug her, and then I was filled with this overwhelming feeling of accomplishment as if my work on this earth was done. But as I slowly came down off my euphoric daddy high I realized she still has not got that potty thing down, can only count to three and can only pick out about ten letters of the alphabet. Obviously I have a long way to go...
Still she is starting to understand the correlation between Daddy, tools and his shop. She also has to be near me whenever I work on something in the house. between her toy tool bench she LOVES to play with, her Grandfather allowing her to "fix" things with him, and her Dad always letting her hang around him while working, I think she is steering towards tom-boyism. But is that a bad thing???
Either way, its been awhile since I posted a picture. Here is Daddy and Daughter taken yesterday at a park for those that have not seen her in awhile.
