Ds1 had one of his moments today when he stuns me.
He loves looking through home magazines. This week I've bought him three, we've looked through one at the dentist (where he sang happy birthday to a big chocolate cake) and about 10 days ago we flicked through about 5 at Mum and Dad's house. We've also looked though the local paper house bit together and he's been looking at his nursery manager's house details (she's moving).
Today we went back to mum and dad's- they have about 60 magazines beneath their coffee table on this storage tray thing. I picked up one at random. Ds1 immediately started shouting mmda mmda (hoover) I was flicking through looking for hoovers and the screaming was getting louder while he was trying to turn the pages. 2/3rds of the way thorugh there it was- a double page spread on hoovers. Instant smiles and 5 minutes of looking at hoovers.
How on earth did he remember there was a double page spread on hoovers in that magazine? He knew exactly what he was looking for. Dh is happy as he says it means he will be good at chess His visual memory is ridiculous.
