"Good morning buddy" I say when I go to his room to get him from his bed.
"Puzzles". Oliver's response
I carry him to mom to eat and cuddle while I'm getting ready and pass the kitchen where now his puzzles are.
"Puzzles" he says as we pass by and he points to them.
He arrives in our bedroom and I lay him down. "Puzzles, Puzzles".
