The Way I Feel

We have been reading and talking about feelings with Will recently. When I read books to him, I often ask him how he thinks the person or character is feeling and we like a specific book by Janan Cain called The Way I Feel. It describes lots of emotions in kid friendly verses and shows pictures of characters expressing that emotion in their face.

So... while he was sitting on the potty tonight (sometimes it takes awhile) I read the book to him again and then asked him to make different expressions for me. What a good sport... these crack me up!

Happy


Sad


Scared


Pouting


Thinking


Angry


Surprised


Silly


More Silly



And just plain cute...


And after all that... he'd peed on the potty! He likes to say "Ta-da!" when he's proud of himself. And when we flush he says "bye bye pee!" Here's Will is his big boy underwear.
