Just a bit ago, from across the room, I heard the soft sounds of AJ talking to himself. I went to go investigate and found him laying on his back on the floor, head cushioned on a pillow he had pulled off the couch, holding a book above his face. He was “reading” this book to himself. (It was a soft one, from Grandma Jackman, with many objects , each the same color, on each page). aaaahhh…
Where is the sweet sweet picture of this sweet sweet moment you ask? Well, I went to (quietly) grab for the camera and AJ immediately perks up, “PICTURE”, he says. I try to get him to re-create the moment, only to discover that the memory card is not in the camera and I have no idea where it is. ARGGHH!!
In a related note, he is gradually catching onto the concept of colors. He help up his breakfast fruit this morning, and with no prompting, said, “GREEN Grapes.” Yea!! The two colors he can most reliably identify are pink and green, so Lilly Pulitzer here we come!
It’s fun to watch children learn!
It won’t be long before AJ is getting into trouble for reading with a flashlight under the covers when he’s suppose to be sleeping…
