Clock"Ian, what time is it?"

I asked Ian this question after laying in bed this morning for a few minutes.  Ian had already got up out of bed and was playing with his toy's.  He replied right away, "Eight Terty."

I looked at Jackie and we're astonished that Ian even knew what I was talking about and could respond just like a grown up.  Jackie got up out of bed first and looked at the clock.

"Hon, it's actually 8:30, right on the dot."
