I love:
- that he's getting a sense of humor and that he makes himself laugh when he sees himself in the mirror with a funny hat or sunglasses on.
- when he holds my hand.
- when he sees Dada and gets excited and says, "Dada!" breathlessly.
- listening to him talk. He's never been much of a babbler, so now that he is it's fun to hear his voice.
- watching him blow bubbles in the bath tub and then look up at me with pride that he can do that.
- going down the slide with him at the playground.
- when he waves at and attempts to communicate with things like bugs, animals and stuffed animals.
- when he stands next to another child and wants a hug - he stands and leans toward them wanting them to wrap their arms around him.
- watching him try to fit in various objects -diaper box, wire basket from under the kitchen sink, the water table, trying to lay on a step.
- the way he signs "I love you" which looks like a cross between the actual ASL "I love you" and the Star Trek sign.
- hearing him "sing" and watching him sign, "more" the second the singing stops when we're at church on Tuesday nights.
