New words....

everyday i am amazed by the number of words my kid knows....he will say a word and it takes me a minute to comprehend that he just said something new....saturday we went to lily's prek graduation at a high school auditorium...needless to say, nicholas did not want to sit through the whole ceremony...we let him run up and down the stairs in the dark auditorium....mike chased after him one time when he got to the top and over to the other side....he grabbed him as he went down a row....as he was carrying him back to where we had the stroller, nicholas was yelling/crying out, "myshoe, myshoe" we thought he was saying "juice, juice" since he had been running for so long he must be thirsty...as mike got closer i realized i could see a socked foot and that he was saying, "i lost my shoe, my shoe, my shoe." what a smart friggin kid...mike took him back to the row and there it was stuck in between one of the seats and the next row....what a silly kid....he knew what was up and he tried sooo hard to tell us...thank goodness mommy "speaks" kid language or who knows what would have happened to the missing shoe....i just keep listening and my heart hurts and my eyes tear each time i hear him say a new word....i love it....i think i love it more than watching him sleep....
