Geek is Sexy!

For weeks I have been working with Daniel, trying to get him to color with markers or crayons, or at least to realize he can manipulate them to make marks. Alas, it has been to no avail. He's had absolutely no interest in doing anything with them other than eating them. Well...today I was on the computer doing some freecycle stuff and Daniel was sitting in the corner playing quietly. I couldn't see what he was doing but I could tell he wasn't putting anything in his mouth so I figured he would be okay for a few minutes. When I finished and went over to get him, he was sitting there with one of Joey's markers, coloring all over pictures Mom had printed me yesterday from his birthday. He had found the pictures and one of Joey's (washable, thank goodness) markers on the end table and somehow gotten the cap off and colored the pictures without getting any on anything but the pictures and his hands. I couldn't get too mad at him because he was doing what I have been trying to get him to do...just not the right way. *sigh* I'll have to reprint the pictures.

Patrick: I swear to God the world would go so much better if everyone would just do things the way I say.

I'm so excited to see this movie...but the trailer annoyed me a little. It totally shows a major plot point at the end...way to spoil it movie people!
