Many of you know that Ben has an aversion to clothing in general, but for some reason in particular he HATES wearing underpants. So a trip to our recent Target resulted in the purchase of MANY different styles and sizes of underpants. We got the "Go, Diego, Go" briefs that he picked out, some plaid cotton boxers, some knit boxers with guitars on them and some spiderman boxer briefs. He only paid attention to the Diego ones and that was ok. But then the other day he grabs the spiderman undies, still in the package, and says, "Mom, these Spiderman ones glow in the dark!"
My question to you is this?? How does he know????
No one fessed up to telling him this awesome detail, he didn't see them in the package in the dark... there is a sticker on the front proclaiming "Glow-in-the-Dark," so.... can Ben read?

I'm going with Ben can read. He might not know exactly what the words mean but at some point he likely saw the words and someone read them. I've noticed kids seem to retain pattern recognition that way. Essentially that is reading, but reading also involves comprehension. Either way his Aunt Heather is real proud.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I have a hockey related birthday present for him that I think he'll love. Please tell Charles to check his e-mail and verify his address before I send it. Or you can e-mail me at AT .ca.
