Fast Learner

Cooper is picking up on some of the big kid stuff way too fast. I'm still pretty sure that he should be acting like a baby and not a todler. I expect him to start spouting of some poetry any day now. Until that happens I only have this to report. The kids have been doing odds and ends projects recently which involved, paper, scissors and punches. So there of course is paper, scissors, and punches just lying around all over my house, since I guess they feel that it is summer time and no need to clean up after themselves. Either way, Cooper happend upon a piece of paper, and a pair of scissors. Why do they call it a pair, since really it is only one but I guess sense it has two sides that is reason enough. Who knows. He finds these scissors and paper and immediatly sits down to work on his very own project. He gennerally knows how this whole thing is supposed to work you put your fingers in and then move it some how and it will eventually cut the paper to your desisered shape. For the life of him he could not figure it out with one hand. Now with two hands he was all over it. But not once did he ask for help, by bringing me his project to help him. At least not until I interferred and stuck a camera in his face. Then he realized that oh hey, Mom's here she'll know what to do. Then he thought to himself well if I can't get it to cut then I'm just going to poke a hole in the paper, that should work out great. I just could not believe it, he did try pretty hard at getting them to work, it was just too cute!
