Good Day, Sunshine

James, about 30 seconds after he rolls out of bed:

He's been drawing shapes in colours, and writing their names in black marker. His handwriting is improving, although the letters look more decorative than literal.

Here's what he has to say about his favourite (for now) activity: "I get markers? Oh! Here you are!" (looking at markers in a cupboard door).

Pulls out a chair and squares up to the table: "I sit here and write. I'm BU-sy! Mommy, I'm working."

Work away, little dude. And keep smiling. It makes my morning.
