Kids Say the Darndest Things

Much of our day is spent asking Connor to say "please" when he asks for something. Yesterday in the car, Dad made the all-too-common request for Connor to "please use the magic word if you want that." Now as we all know, the answer to this question is "please" but yesterday Connor surprised us when he said "por favor."

Our thanks go out to Dora the Explorer, her monkey Boots, and her cousin Diego for expanding Connor's vocabulary in Spanish. We are also now hearing Connor say "Adios," some colors like "Roja" and "Verde" and he can count to ten - "uno, dos, tres, quapro, cinco, seis, sete, ocho, nuebe, diez." No, that's not how you actually spell those numbers in Spanish, but that's how he pronounces them!
