Charles had a new word yesterday, “plane”. Charles was out triking down the sidewalk when a small airplane flew over head. Charles points up at it and says “uh pwain!”. Shall we recap? The Charles vocabulary: shoe, no, socks, yes, up, kitty, milk, more, what, truck, plane, choo (choo-choo train), hot, please
Charles had fun on his trike for a while until Corwin on his scooter went across the street. Of course, Charles had to go across the street as well. I was hesitant about that but finally decided as Charles sat, crying and dejected on his trike, that it would be ok because I was there with him. So we headed off but Charles, for some reason, stopped about a third of the way across. I pushed him a bit to get to the other sidewalk but he became progressively more unhappy. I finally had to drag his trike off the road. By this time he was in serious meltdown. I picked him and the trike up and took them back to our house. I tried to take Charles inside but he didn’t like that either. So I let him loose to run around the yard and he was happy again.
