Future Scientist


I'm sure that there is no way to predict what kind of adult my two-year olds will turn into. But you can't help but categorizing them anyway. And this Yuuto, and I am just sure he is going to grow up and be brilliant. Yuuto will discover cold-fusion, or the perfect fuel or time travel. He is only just two years old, but knows all the letters in the alphabet, all his numbers in Japanese and English and has memorized every word I have ever taught him. And recently he has become absolutely entranced by the CD player. I had been using a cassette to play music, but found a kid's music CD at the hyaku yen. And you can see the CD spinning inside the CD player. And he just sits in front of it memorizing all the words to the new songs and figuring out the mechanics of how the CD player works. You can tell his mother is just baffled and amazed at his brilliance. And he is a very sweet kid. His coordination needs a little work...he waves goodbye with the back of his hand instead of his palm. But you can tell he has no time to deal with trivialities like that, and how to do the Hokey Pokey, he has to work on the cure for Bird Flu.
