Phrases I never want to forget

"Oh WOW" 
It is hushed and rushed. He says it with excitement, accentuating and quickening the wow. He says it when you present him with something new or anything you just made. His eyes open big and focus in on the object. He is displaying pure joy that you can not help but smile big yourself.

"Yeah, of course"
He says it short, with maturity and certainty beyond his years. It is sweet and calm, displaying confidence as he says of course, his voice growing a little louder. His shoulder usually shrugs and his left arm raises. His head tilt is inviting to bring you in to whatever you have just asked him. You sought his permission for something and his response is so sweet that you not only cant wait to join him but any slight negativity has instantly vanished from your thoughts. 

"That ok mom?" "Thats a good plan?"
He already has his mind made up but he asks you anyway. He seeks your approval (and may cry if you don't give it). He is proud of his idea and shares it with you, hoping you'll see his thoughtfulness and like his agenda. He asks you slowly with his explanation but quick with his question. As soon as you agree he is off, mind twirling to the next task.
