Gage is experiencing the amazing phenomenon. He tries out new words several hours each day. He’s a little parrot who recognizes “elephants” and “big trucks” and asks for “more Elmo” and “snack, please.” Most shocking is when he says “Sorry, Mama.” He’s either learning to schmooze … or copying big sister’s reaction when she’s about to get a time out.

Gage is barely 2 but he already has a reputation at kindergarten. He has a tantrum, throws himself on the ground and gets himself and Mama in trouble. He makes noise at a concert and gets yelled at. Mama, who was perfect at school, is mortified. She even had to lock herself in the bathroom for a good cry after one particularly embarrassing experience.
