New Tricks

Isn't it amazing the amount of things we learn in our lifetime. While my parents have been visiting Ezekiel has learned some new things. First he has learned that olives are fun to eat when they are put first on the finger and then in the mouth. It is so fun to watch him do this. Every olive is placed on the finger and then the journey to the mouth begins. The second thing Ezekiel has learned is that he loves to spin. Papa (my father) set Ezekiel in a barstool that spun and just turned him and turned him until he couldn't hold his head up. While most of us would think this was cruel, Ezekiel LOVED it. He would be so dizzy he would fall down and could hardly sit up, but he would be back at the bottom of the stool begging for more. CRAZY!!! Last of all Ezekiel is expanding his vocabulary everyday (or so it seems). He now says please which comes out sounding more like peas, but it still melts mama's heart! He also says bush, duck, and once in a while no. It is so amazing to hear him now repeat what you say to the best of his ability! Ezekiel has also learned to say cheese when mommy tries to take a picture. It has sure helped in capturing his beautiful smile on film!!!! It is so fun to learn new things that bring life that sweet taste of joy!
