JDaniel (He is holding a toy car from the garage): Bring in a car.
Me: Yes, but put it in the sink. I have to wash it.
JDaniel: Pollen! (Sigh)
My mom: Your sister’s sent beautiful flowers for Mother’s Day.
JDaniel: Dad brings roses. (He implied dad brought them for mom.)
JDaniel(Looking out the master bedroom window on the first floor): Mushrooms! Mushrooms!
Me: I can see them.
JDaniel: In basket Mom!
Me: We can’t gather them in a basket until we see the allergist.
JDaniel: Pollen! (Sigh)
Me: What are all your toys doing in a huge pile?
JDaniel: Mess! Mess!
Me: Are you going to help clean up the mess?
JDaniel (Lounging on couch cushions that are also in the pile): No!
Me: I think we will be having one bin of toys out at a time for a while.
JDaniel: Oh! No!
Me: (Guiding him to a bin and back to the toys): Let’s clean up now!
JDaniel: Sorry, mom.
I had three bins and a basket of toys out in the living room. Now we take a bin out each day.
JDaniel (Pointing to the baby monitor in my bedroom): Listen to babies.
Me: Yes, I can hear upstairs.
JDaniel:Listen to JDaniel.
I can’t believe he knows how baby monitors work.
Sorry he’s suffering from allergies! Poor little guy…my children do too.
And don’t be surprised at how intelligent little children are! =) He’ll continue to surprise you!
WE are also dealing with them. My son reacently got tested and it’s nuts how much he’s allergic to.
He is so absolutely precious, I so miss that age.
Stopped by from SITS, thanks for featuring one of my posts on your blog last month, that was a delightful surprise. 🙂

Allergies are the worst! I suffer from them and I can’t imagine how hard it must be for little ones.
He sounds like a very smart little guy!!
Awww so precious! I hope his allergies get better!
allergies are the worst! such a cutie too!
I love those little conversations and have a few indelibly imprinted on my memory.
They just need a ltitle motivation (and a little fear of toy removal) to get them going.
he sounds so mature.
That is so impressive!
His comments are so cute, especially the baby monitor one.
I’m also suffering with allergies. I hate it, and it seems like it’s been months now. They started early this year. Hope JDaniel feels better soon!
Ahhhh! I love the way JDaniel’s little brain is making sense of his world!
aww!
i hate all the pollen too!
