The Brian Factor
Jul 30th, 2006 by Brian A. Thomas
Ari sometimes calls me Brian rather than dad. It reminds me of a girl I knew who called her dad by his name… Needless to say, I generally will ignore him until he calls me dad, or after a few million times of it, will tell him “Ari, I am dad,” where he normally switches to dad or daddy. Odd.
He has also taken to going to bed fairly late, after 10 PM, sometimes nearly 11 PM. He still gets up at 8 AM…
His imagination still seems to be very big. Just today he was pushing his golf cart around and making a sound. After awhile I noticed that before he starts the sound, he puts his hands at the side and pulls them up to start the sound. It was then I noticed he was mowing the grass (carpet).
