Wiseguy


This little guy isn't talking much but all the time he's listening and taking in the world around him. On Thanksgiving day I was standing at the kitchen island fixing the corn casserole and I cleared my throat. A second later I heard Elijah clears his. He was sitting on the other side of the island down on the floor where I couldn't see him. So I did it again and he did too. Then his mommy noticed and did the same thing with the same echo. So we made a little game of it. Now we're noticing that he imitates us in many other ways.

Never take for granted that these little ones are watching and learning from how we live. They learn from us way too early and we can't see the behaviors until later on.
