So the boy has been thrilled with his ability to read signs of late. Whilst driving recently, we practiced reading the signs on the buildings together.
“What’s that sign say?” I asked.
“Big Apple!” he replied.
“And that one?”
“REX!”
“And that one?”
“Game Stop!” (though I think he knew that one already from visits…)
A brief pause, then….
“Dad, what’s that sign – the one that says H…O…O…T…E…R…S..?”
“That’s not a sign we are going to read today, son.”
