It starts at 4.

At least once a day Max will have some sort of short remark, quip, or comment on something I say. Sometimes only to himself.

This morning for example, when I see the recycling truck pass, and realized we forgot recycling was now on Fridays.

Max is just passing through the room to go downstairs.

“Shoot.” I say a little too loud.

Max cheerfully and without missing a beat  “He scores!”

Then stops

“What’s wrong mom?”

“I forgot the to put out the recycling and now it’s too late”

Max looks at me, shakes his head, goes on his way.
