In many ways Michael is a smart kid. He has been reading books for several months now. It's hard to day whether he has memorized them or if he is reading sight words, but either way, he's got the concept and he is doing more with books at 2 1/2 than even Ree did.
However, then there are the other moments. I won't say Michael was dumb tonight, but I will say he was having a Charlie Brown moment. Shortly after I gave Leon and Michael two of our old cell phones to play with, Michael started crying. Sadly, I immediately looked at Leon, but he was busy chatting away. "Hi, Gran...uh-huh...uh-huh...OH! That's too bad..."
So I asked Michael what was wrong. He looked at me, tears streaming down his face and said, "No one was home."
