What's your name?

A few weeks ago the mother of a friend of mine watched Luke for a couple hours in the afternoon while I did a photo shoot. When I got home the first thing she asked me was, "So...what's his name again? We've been asking him, 'what's your name?' and he just says, 'what's your name?' " I laughed out loud, told her his name (which she remembered right away), and then felt much better about my own lapses of memory.

Later that evening we practiced with Daddy. I asked Derek, "What's your name?" and Derek responded, "My name's Derek." He turned to Luke,"What's your name?" Luke responded with the expected repetition, "What's your name?" Derek said, "No, say 'My name's Luke'". Luke shook his head. "No daddy, your name's Derek. My name's Me."

  1. That story is hilarious! I can totally hear Luke saying to Derek, "No your name is Derek and I'm me!". At least he knows his name, not like my brother who thought for a year his name was Ted (which was really him saying Kid) because we actually never called him by his real name. !!!
