Backyard

Then she took off her shoes.

Here she said “Ezri no shoes.”
Her language gets more sentence-like all the time.
We were passed by the North High track team and Ezri said, “Big kids running.”
From the backseat of the car I heard, “Mama driving,” followed by Ezri reaching toward the front seat and saying “Inga inga” (a noise of desire) followed by “Ezri driving.”
Both Eric and I are charmed by her definitive three nods of the head for an affirmative response.
And her answer of, “good,” when asked if we should go to the park.

She’s also just started describing past events.
Or her parents got smart enough to notice her re-running her day at bedtime saying who she saw or where she went.
We had friends over for dinner and Ezri likes to point at the seats and name who sat in them previously.

She’s only getting better at speaking, climbing, and charming.
