Happy half birthday sweet boy! Today Perry turns 4.5 years old and is officially closer to 5 than he is 4. I don’t know where my baby and toddler have gone but he looks and talks so much like a big kid these days….and it is so fun. I love driving in the car playing games like “I am thinking of a disney character” and “naming the letter that all the things we see start with.” And discussing the words and meanings behind all the signs we pass. He loves telling jokes (and thanks to the Easter bunny he has some books with real jokes in them now rather than the totally ridiculous ones he was making up), solving math problems, writing words…he is learning so much every day. And most of the time is an absolute joy to be around. The rest of the time? Yes he sometimes likes to prove that he is most definitely still a kid that doesn’t like to not get his way.
Every year since he has been old enough to talk we have done the same little interview with him on his half birthday. It has been fun to see how his answers have changed over the years.
Without further adieu here is our interview with 4.5 year old Perry.
