I love it when Lauren thinks out loud; especially when she shares how grateful she is for someone, or something. She'll often surprise us by proclaiming, "I love you!" or telling us how much she enjoyed something we did with her.
Today on the way home from church (two days after our first-ever trip to Chuck E. Cheese) she said, "Thanks for taking us to Chuck E. Cheese. And letting us get pizza. That was really fun."
After lunch and naps we went on a little walk along a trail in our neighborhood, and at dinner, in the middle of an unrelated conversation, Lauren said, "Thanks for taking us on a nature walk today. And letting us play on the playground." I said,
"You're welcome, Lauren. It's really nice that you say thank you."
She replied, "Thanks for saying you're welcome, Mom." Then she raised her little hand in congratulations. "High five!"
