...as tony filled up the car with gas last night i was staring unseeing out my window listening to lyla's random chatter fill up the silence. suddenly adament, lyla began saying firmly: "k, mama!", "n, mama!", "p, mama!"
"yes lyla, those are letters." i said absent mindedly, still lost in whatever planet i was on.
"MAMA! K!", "MAMA, LOOK!!"
turning around i saw lyla pointing up at the sign above the car, yelling out the letters she recognized.
i sometimes feel inadequate in this whole parenting adventure...to me, lyla is still so little that i sometimes forget that she can comprehend what is going on around her...like counting to 8 this morning and twirling at the same time.
inadequacy and all, i'm so glad i get to go on this amazing journey with her...can't wait to see what she points out next!
