Last Marco story for awhile, unless he does something outrageous today. The other day he was taking blocks out and building, as I was telling him it was clean up time. I tried to negotiate by saying, "Okay Marco, one more bunch, but that's it, because it's really clean up time!"
I left the room for a few minutes, and when I came back, his structure was even bigger. I said, "Marco, you're still building!" He told me something about his building, and I said, "But you're not listening to me, that's the issue." He replied, "But that's not my issue."
Leave it to Marco to stop me in my tracks. I said, "What's your issue?" He said, "My issue is doing what I want. That's my issue." And he liked the word "issue" so much, he kept saying it over and over, smiling; "Issue, issue, issue."
He made me feel like I had issues, so I left the room again and let his mother take care of it.

Oh. My. God. At least Calder's parents are honest. I'm forever searching for some mention of "hair like a gorgeous river or silk," or "poise and grace that go beyond her tender years." :)
