Capturing more Benjy-isms
Just want to note some of the things Benjy has been saying lately, so I don't forget them. These are from the last few months - so from nearly 3 to just over 3.
Many statements will start with 'I've got a question for you' - for example, 'Mummy, I've got a question for you - I love Driver Dan'. He pronounces 'mine' as 'mide' - still, at over 3, which I love. He likes to do things 'all by my own' and if he wants to do something immediately, it's 'straight now'. He has recently started using the word 'actually', and uses it correctly, which I find very grown-up and slightly at odds with the 3 year old who says it. He has also started properly singing now - he sings along to songs, joins in, and makes up his own. And lastly, for now, he listens to his Gruffalo CD a lot in the car, along with others by the same author, and so now introduces every book as being 'by Julia Donaldson'. This extends into other areas too - recently, he mentioned that he'd been to the cinema with Eddie to see The Smurfs and when I asked him what it was about, he replied, 'Julia Donaldson'.
