Donovan: Alex look out your windown there is a lot of snow.
Alex: No
Donovan: Alex, yes there is and it is snowing outside.
Alex said firmly with a finger pointing: No!
Donovan: Alex there is too snow outside. Mom there is snow outside and it is snowing.
Mom: Yes, Donovan.
Donovan to Alex: Alex all you know how to say is no, no, no, no.
Alex: No, no, no
Mom: Donovan we should sing a yes song not a no song.
Donovan: Yes, yes, yes, yes,
Alex: yes
Mom: We just have to teach Alex how to say yes instead of no.
After listening to several conversations like this on the way to Park City and a little bit on the way home before they fell asleep I now believe that Alex hears no too much because I or Allan say it a lot and Alex has figured that is the only word he is going to say. Mind you he can talk. He just chooses not to.

ha ha funny kid. Kids do like the work NO and MINE. How do you get around using it though?
My aunt tried something instead of saying no she would say let's leave it right there, try another spot, things like that instead of no but then she had another kid and it didn't work out so well.
