The darling mispronunciations of childhood!--dear me, there's no music that can touch it; and how one grieves when it wastes away and dissolves into correctness, knowing it will never visit his bereaved ear again.

Jaxtin - 5 mo's ..figures it out


Jaxy did something that really impressed Nase & I yesterday. He loves to play with crinkly plastic--Nase handed him a Ramen Noodle bag and then another so he had one in each hand. He held out a third bag to him; Jax studied it for a second, then carefully placed a bag from one hand to the other (2 bags in 1 hand) and grabbed the third bag w/his free hand. (We were expecting him to drop one or flail around for the 3rd.)

(It was a smarty move for a 5 month old, but what impressed me most was how he did this in a calm, patient way with precision--determined but patient is a good personality trait, one parents would be grateful to have in a child(!) :)
