What a great age to document, how it brings back memories of my own dear kids, such huge giants now! Siena leaving off initial consonant sounds reminds me of Jake, who would even split dipthongs (the year his halloween costume was a spider, he was a 'pider). And the letter recognition so young (we, like you, were "gobsmacked")reminds us of a time we took Ben to the park near where gg now lives, and we saw a tugboat with a big M on it go up the East River, and ben said "M" and we got so excited he thought there was something special about the letter M and kept saying it everywhere he saw it, until we realized he had a number of letters already, and had just never pointed them out to us. Fabulous blog, you are wonderful. love, wendy Just looking at this wonderful epic today for the first time in many months – laughing out loud wonderful and touching to tears.
