Competition

Everyday I find myself amazed by Judah. Sometimes this means laughing out loud because he said or did something that just cracks me up. Sometimes I am caught off guard by his whits. I have found it really hard to discipline him when he makes me laugh. Anyway today he ate a big lunch and he ate it fast. We had pasta alfredo leftovers from yesterday. He looks up at me and with a mouth that is covered in sauce and still half full he asks me "di ey in?" "what?" I ask him. He swallows his last bite and asks me with a look of pride on his face and excitement in his eyes. "Did I win?" A little astonished by his competitiveness and remembering our dinner table growing up I realize that he finished his plate before I did. I answer "yes, you did." As climbs of his chair and runs to his room.
