Spring has been slow to come around, but amazingly that enormous pile of snow near our driveway has vanished! Binbin did ask recently, though about when chrisman (his word for Christmas) is coming? and when is it going to snow?
Binbin speaks with an ever expanding vocabulary and is constantly trying to figure out how the world works. He usually begins his theoretical understanding with "how?" How can I use this rope and I can tie Baba up. Or, how can I go to Cote's and we can eat ice cream outside?!
He has daily admired Miss Donna's flower garden, its many daffodils, tulips of yellow, pink, red, purple, and white with purple edging. He has been especially impressed with the enormous bleeding heart bush. Miss Donna has generously shared with us about 8 square feet worth of day lilies, which we've have transplanted all around the bare spots of our yard. It's been fun working in the garden, and fortunately, after taking in 4 worms as pets in April, Binbin no longer feels the urge to adopt these particular critters.
His love of late has been a splendid drum kit displayed at Marty's music in Brunswick. We pass by the storefront twice a day going to and from daycare. The color? You guessed it: lime green! Binbin tells me everyday, at least once, Mama I want the green drum! And everyday, I tell him that Mama is working on saving up money for that kit.
Binbin now knows lyrics to Beetles' tunes: all together now, nowhere man, and (of course) yellow submarine. We cheerfully sing these from time to time on our car rides.
