Soren is the “zookeeper” of his classroom this week, which means he’s featured on a little display by the doorway. The display includes photos and answers to a few questions, such as, “What’s your favorite color?” Soren has many favorite colors, including but not limited to pink, orange, and green (orange seemed to edge out the others). Another question was, “What’s your favorite movie?” Soren doesn’t have a favorite movie. He hasn’t even seen a movie. Is this weird? I’ve never seen the point of having a 2-year-old watch a movie, plus I don’t think he’d sit still for that long.

When asked what he wanted to be when he grows up, Soren said, “I don’t know.” Then he said, “A baby.” I decided to exert undue influence with regard to answering this question and said, “Hey, do you want to be a DJ when you grow up?” He said, “Yeah!”

The last question was: What makes you special? Here’s how that went:

Me: Soren, what makes you special?

Soren: I’m not special. I’m beige.

Awww, kid. You can be beige and special.
