Because you're not a kid......!

Until tonight I have never heard Trent properly answer a "why" question with a complete reason or sentence.  About eight months ago was when Trent first began answering every question with "because".  But that is all he says...just one word "because".  No matter how hard I tried to get more out of him, that was it...."because" or he would repeat the question back to me.

Tonight is Sabbath and we usually have family night with all our dogs.  After dinner we watch a movie and eat popcorn snuggled up in bed.  Tonight I brought in the popcorn and Trent's juice box but I already had water in the room so I didn't bring anything  else for myself. When I decided to have a drink from Trent's juice box he told me "mom, you cannot drink that!". I asked him why and he replied, "because you're not a kid!".  A complete sentence with a reason other than just "because"!  Yes!  

Way to go son!
