I know how God wonders what you are.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This afternoon I was sitting on the couch nursing Ian and enjoying the dappled sunshine coming through the window and caressing us, when Seth quietly skips into the house whispering &#8220;Fweeoo, fweeoo, fweeoo&#8221;. He immediately climbs up onto his stool and in one motion is on top of the counter reaching what I believe is our last apple out of the hanging basket, he climbs easily down and opens the silverware drawer. Now, at this point I know he doesn&#8217;t know I&#8217;m watching him and as I&#8217;m pretty sure he&#8217;s after a sharp knife to cut his apple I&#8217;m pondering whether to scold him and break the spell or wait and see what he gets. He turns up with a table knife, and humming, immediately replaces it and shoves the apple whole into his mouth for a bite. He then continues opening and shutting the silverware drawer as he&#8217;s alternately munching and humming, and the produce basket is still swinging over his head. After a couple minutes he turns around with a grin on his face and tells me: &#8220;I got an apple!&#8221;.  Ten minutes later all he&#8217;s got left is an apple core in his hands and I ask him &#8220;Was  that a yummy apple?&#8221; and He said &#8220;No.&#8221; and looks down at it, &#8220;It has seeds in it.&#8221; and handed it to the dog who took it gratefully!<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/blog.streetpoet.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/dsc_9505ps-blog.JPG\" alt=\"dsc_9505ps-blog.JPG\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>He&#8217;s always said things differently, mixing up words and switching syllables.
