Butter

Tonight at dinner Ben was eating an English Muffin and kept pointing and grunting toward the table.  I kept asking him what he wanted and he kept pointing and grunting (toward the stick of butter).  I asked him again what he wanted and added “use your words”.  Without missing a beat, the wise guy said “buuuttter”.  His face was very intense and his word was very clear!!  Aaron and I both cracked up laughing because he’s never said the word butter before.  For some reason, it really struck my funny bone.  So there I was, at the dinner table, buttering Ben’s toast and laughing so hard that tears began streaming down my face.

I guess I should expect stuff like this because his verbal skills are changing daily.  I think he’s forming paragraphs in his dreams at night.  Keep working buddy because you are amazing!!
