A few days ago, I went to pick up the boys' friends Victoria and Leah for a playdate. I was pulling Carl and Leah in our red wagon; Soren and Victoria were alternatively dawdling and running along the sidewalk. When we got to the street, I told Soren and Victoria to hold hands and stick with me as we crossed.
On the other side, they kept holding hands and Victoria said "Let's walk fast!" I watched them run clumsily ahead of me hand in hand and I laughed at the things they said to each other.
SOREN: Ham was the first monkey in space.
VICTORIA: My shoes light up. Look at my shoes!
SOREN: (looking at her shoes) I have dinosaur shoes.
VICTORIA: My shoes light up.
SOREN: I see a bird! It flew away into the sky!
VICTORIA: Let's walk fast.
SOREN: Let's go home, hun.
