Put Back


"Ba!" Joshua exclaims a lot. He means "Back!" He has a strong sense of where things belong. He puts his crayons back into the box, and toys back on the shelf. Today after "play-sweeping" the floor with the dust mop, I was surprised to see him try to put it back into the closet. When we were at the health center for a meeting, I got him a toy from the waiting room and brought it into the meeting area. When he was bored with the toy, he wanted to put it "Ba!" in the waiting room again. Now he doesn't always do this, and it also doesn't mean his room and our house is clean or free of toy-strewn floors. But he does like to put things back! He'll need to work in a library like his dad once did.
