Kimball has a great memory. He can put his toys down and if we ask him where they are he can go find them right away. If he takes something of ours the same is true; he can show us where he puts it.
On Friday, Joseph got finished with work a little early so he came by the house to get Kimball and they went birthday shopping for me. They found the present they wanted to get me and they took turns holding it. Joseph received a phone call from Dr. Allison so he was slightly distracted for a few minutes. After he got off the phone the presents was gone. Joseph said he and Kimball retraced their steps over and over looking for the present. Joseph kept asking Kimball "Where's Mom's present?" Joseph reported that he finally went back to the aisle where he was pretty sure he last had the present and got down on Kimball's level and asked one more time...probably in a pleading voice..."Where's Mom's present?" Joseph said Kimball walked right up to a spot on the shelf and pulled the present out from behind something else. Joseph had looked up and down the shelves, but hadn't thought to look behind things. Thankfully, Kimball remembered where the present was!
We enjoyed a good laugh about it at home.
