Lex has started blowing the minds of those
around him again. Just about anytime some one says, “careful,”
he’ll stop, look around, see the danger, and when appropriate,
lookup, and say as clear as a bell while shaking his head, “I
don’t want to fall and get hurt.” It literally sets people back
on their heels. God bless Love and
Logic.

He also shocked our
neighbor with his “applied physics,” as she puts it, when I
asked him to right her wheel borrow he had just tipped on its
side. It was empty, but it is one of those heavy metal ones
(ours is plastic and Lex could probably lift it over his
head).

So, he tugs on the handle he used
to tip it over, found too much resistance there. Immediately,
he walks around to push on the top-side, lifted it up enough
that he could get his other hand under the bottom-side, and put
it right up. He did it as smoothly and as easily as any adult
might have done with a proportionally sized wheel borrow.

She gushed for about 5 minutes strait. She
gushes about everything though. She’s great for the ego. Having
Lex for a son doesn’t hurt either. ;)
