Story Time #10: Hyperlexia

I hadn't originally intended to do seven videos about the boy this week. But on day two, Josh left a comment asking me to explain where such a little guy was going on a school bus. This video attempts to answer that question. But for those of you (like Josh) who've only ever met the boy through this videoblog, this may leave you with more questions than answers.

I knew it was going to take me all week to put together this one, so I filled the remainder of the days with unpublished videos from the past. I think it does create a bit of an arc to the week, and it's perhaps fitting that with this video I cross over the 100 video milestone.

Those of you following a link about hyperlexia can click in the right column on the video category "story time" to see videos of the boy reading/reciting.

That'll just about do it for Videoblogging Week 2007.

Pillow Fort

Cuteness in low light conditions. (Some people on older monitors or on PCs won't hardly be able to see a thing, here. It's all in the audio, anyhow.)

Made it to Day Six of Videoblogging Week. Tomorrow's a traveling day; I may need to post #7 early.

Scary

"Is it scary?" is what we've asked him in the past, so it's what he says himself when he's feeling scared. Especially when he's having fun.

Day Five, still alive. It's Videoblogging Week.

One Shoe On

A frequent morning stalling tactic, in which the boy demonstrates some small amount of rhythm. Until, that is, he attempts to talk and walk at the same time.

Barely made it in under the wire for Day Four of Videoblogging Week. The first two posts were same-day videos, but these last two have been dug up from the archives. I may need to keep doing that for the next couple of days...

Bus

Today we put our three year old onto a school bus.

Maybe you should read that last sentence again.

Gym Tumbler

From the boy's weekly gymnastic class.

Which at this age pretty much involves: jumping.

And being hurled.

Well, it's Videoblogging Week again. We'll see if I can post seven videos in seven days. Without just digging into my unused video archives.
