One afternoon, Nissim took a late nap, so he wasn't at all interested in going to sleep at his regular bedtime. Also not when it was his older siblings' bedtime (which is always later than its supposed to be!) He was too busy 'reading' a pile of books on the couch, fiddling with my cell phone, and looking for snacks to eat. When my bedtime was approaching, I finally decided it was time to get him in bed.
(this conversation took place in Hebrew, as Nissim's speech therapist suggested that we stick to one language to help his speech develop, which B"H it has)
Mommy: ... נסים, עכשיו צריכים ללכת
Nissim: !באוטו
Mommy: ...לא, מתוק, האוטו לא פה עכשיו. צריכים ללכת
Nissim (with his eyes all lit up, not missing a beat): !אוטובוס
(Editor's note: buses are SO much more fun than cars, especially if you own a car so a bus ride is a rare treat!)
I had a good laugh (along with Yael Chava Berlinger, who was visiting with us for a few days) and finally convinced Nissim that we were not going anywhere else except for his bed. He B"H complied, albeit begrudgingly.
