Today Charlie was very tired and cry-ey–I think because of daylight savings. When I walked him into his classroom he started crying. It was the first time this ever happened. He asked me to stay and read a book, so I sat in their little book corner and read to him. His friend Claire came over and sat on my lap and the minute he saw her he cheered up, leaned over, and said “Than you for the basketball you gave me.” I was stunned that he remembered to say this to her since he had received the gift 3 days before and she wasn’t there when he got it. He obviously really liked the gift and the giver.
