MWM, that rote memory is so funny. SO and I were talking about him the other day and how his memory is.


It's true, Dylan remembers things that are so unimportant in the grand scheme, but things that he really SHOULD remember - they go in and out in a New York second.


For example, difficult child 2 let easy child use his GameBoy for 5 minutes on August 5, 2003. Today, Dylan asks to use it, difficult child 2 says no, and Dylan reminds him, date and all, EXACTLY when he used it last.


But then there are things that have to be reminded to him, over and over and over, like going poop. Still, years after the encopresis deal, he needs reminded nightly. But he can remember that I gave him a piece of gum on March 8th 2001 at 7 PM for picking up his toy for me.


Ahh.
