Imitation

Joash went to sit at that mirroring position on his own

after I placed Jayna down at the left pillow. *amazing*

It's scary to have the responsibility as role models for our children. We have to be careful how we act and speak in our daily lives or we'll see it mirrored back from our kids. Thankfully, Joash has so far not picked up anything negative from us. He has only called us by our nicknames for each other (Bear bear and Meow Meow) and some speech patterns such as "Aiyoyo", "Oh dear" and "There you are!". Recently, Joash has imitated the way I play with his sister in an uncanny manner.... Look what he does to the little yellow bear that represents Jayna in the following video.
