Smarter Than You Think

That little stinker found an old TV that we don't use in a corner cupboard in our front room. He likes plugs, and this TV was basically almost sitting on the ground, and I didn't think he would be able to pull it over, so I let him play with it. I looked over at him, and he had found an outlet next to the cupboard and was trying (unsuccessfully, thank God) to plug it in! When I asked him what he was doing, he even showed me the plug! Like he was saying, "Here, I'm pluggin in the TV, see." I've seen it time and time again with kids, but it never ceases to amaze me - they know so much more than you think they do! Just by watching me here and there, probably plugging in and then unplugging the vacuum, he knew exactly what to do with that cord. This is exactly why we should never underestimate our kids.
