R.J.'s Amazing Vocabulary

Sometimes R.J. amazes me. The other day I was telling someone that I don't like high bridges and explained that when I was young I dropped a stuffed animal out the window on a bridge and it nearly fell off the side of the bridge. It didn't fall and I was able to get it back, but it was frightening for a little kid. So, R.J. is listening and says exactly this to me: "Mama, you were scared because you visualized that stuffed animal could have been you falling over the bridge." He used the word VISUALIZED! He's 6-years-old and in kindergarten. I am a teacher and I never hear such words from my students so I think it is remarkable.
