Every Little Thing Is Gonna Be All Right

Thomas is a boy who sees the world through yellow-tinted glasses. Whether that makes him an optimist or not, only time will tell. But for now, everything is surely "lellow".

He's also accumulated a very interesting set of words. Here are the highlights:

  • wow!
  • cool!
  • more!
  • cra-cker!
  • me me me
  • bu-bble
  • ball
  • beeeeeee (bird)
  • geeeeeee (give)
  • hello
  • bye bye
  • no!
  • Anna, Mommy, Daddy, Ne-nny (Jenny), and some kind of aaaaahhhhh (Jack)
  • of course, the ubiquitous ma-moon (balloon).
But by far his best word is the way he says 'yes'.
He says 'yeeeeeeeeeaaaaahhhhh' in a very slow and laid back sort of way that makes him sound Jamaican. Very Bob Marley. Quite hilarious. And completely at odds with his more normal Type-A approach.
