Someone is a bit of a dramatic. It looks like someone has stuck out a long cane and is trying to drag him off stage.

Yes man

Today marks the day when Ian says "Yes" instead of "yeah" or "uh huh" or just nods his head. No is a very familiar part of his vocabulary, but I was struck this evening by how many times he actually articulated the word Yes. Previously he would just repeat what you said if you asked him something ("Do you want juice?" "Juice!"). After months of No, Yes is music to my ears.
