Wah-ter

It is amazing how fast kids change and pick up on things.

Both of the boys know our route to and from daycare.  In the mornings, Jackson knows that when we round this one turn, there is "wah-ter"....a small pond that has a fountain in it.  He points out the "wah-ter" every day.  He also knows there is more "wah-ter" at the one stop light - and that one also gets a special "goose" call-out.  He now points out water everywhere!

One night last week, we ventured away from our usual route home as we needed to go to the grocery store.  The boys were concerned, and began telling us "No - this way" and pointing in the direction we normally take.  We explained we were going to the store, then we would go home.  Now, each night, the boys try to tell us which way to go - "No, this way daddy."  And they point in whichever direction they want to go. 

I remember being five or so before I knew when my parents took a different route to my grandparents house, but these boys are only 2.  Do they seriously KNOW our route?  Should we be mixing it up more?
