So I just got back from walking the miniature gold pony (a.k.a. Blue the golden retriever), and I was talking to my 5 year old brother who was standing in my doorway preventing me from closing my bedroom door. Our conversation went like this:
Me: Hey Sam.
Sam: Hi.
Me: I'm trying to close my door buddy.
Sam: Uh huh.
Me: Can you move please?
Sam: Uh huh. *Doesn't move*
Me: ...
Sam: ...
Me: *Shrugs* Have you had a good day?
Sam: Uh huh.
Me: I love you.
Sam: Uh huh.
Me: Do you love me?
Sam: Yes.
Me: Can you say it?
Sam: I love me.
Me: ... I need to word things better...
End Conversation
This may not seem like a conversation to most people, but for me and Sam it's as close as we're going to get right now. My little brother's autistic so he can't communicate very well, but he has come a long way... Even if he still wont talk to me much... Talks to mum more... Meh...
