When I picked Dan Dan up at day care Wednesday, Mrs K. told me he was "H-I-T-T-I-N-G" another kid. Oh my gosh! Is he at that Terrible 2 stage already? I was surprised because he has always loved playing with this other one-year-old cute baby girl. Apparently, he pushed the girl on the head and grabbed her toy. This is the first time I heard it from day care. He's shown frustration by hitting the table or the floor before. I've seen him trying to get another kid to not touch the horsie that he was on at Tanforan, but nothing at day care. I tried to tell him it's not OK to hit and the baby would be in pain. I am not sure how much he understands. I guess more episodes of that will happen in the near future.
On the other hand, when we picked him up yesterday, he greeted me at the door as always, calling me "Mommy! Mommy!". Then he went over to the cubbies and brought out a sheet of paper for me (all by himself without being prompted by Mrs. K). He showed me a painting that he did! His first from school! Of course, since he's only 2, he just scribbled on the sheet, but the fact that he went over and got it for me, showed how proud he is of himself.
I told Daddy that I've been reading how other mothers save kids artwork in pizza boxes or containers. I think what I am going to do is to start scanning them and put in the "Aidan's Artwork" folder on my computer. If I feel like it, I might make a photobook out of them. Knowing us, these sheets of paper will just be all over the place and become trash.
