Yesterday I picked Gavin up from school and told him I was going to drive him to a surprise. Gavin loves surprises! I drove him to a toy store and told him I was going to buy him a toy for absolutely no reason other than that I loved him. I gave him a budget and in we went. He picked out Tyro, a blue and stretchy Dino figure.
Just as I was paying for his new toy he decided he had something to say to the friendly cashier.
“Excuse me. Do you see that human right there? That’s my Dad.”
Well, there we have it. My son acknowledged my existence as a human and also as his father. I can rest easy.
-Matt
P.S.,- As some of you know, I’m a very proud father and husband 🙂
Have a great day and buy someone a toy! lol they may just have something to say.

Awww that’s the best. One of mine calls people humans rather than him/her. She always has. It’s endearing.

I think he has the bearings of a great writer. ‘Human’ is not to be taken lightly. And he loves his dad a lot. Not to be taken lightly either. 🙂

Hah, funny I read this today, on my 4 y.o. twins’ birthday. I just took my twins to the shop today and said they could choose whatever toys they wanted. (They ended up with three and we are still practising sharing.) They got a gazillion other toys too but I could see they were thrilled about choosing for themselves 😋

I can’t wait to do things like this with my son. I often imagine picking him up from school in the future and saying “Hey! We’re not going home, let’s go and watch that movie you’ve been asking about!” And he’ll be like “Yeeeeaaahhh!!!” 😆
