Favorite moments of the past two days

Ezri blowing her first bubbles. She is SO PROUD of herself.

Ezri going up to strangers who had beverages in the coffeeshop and lifting her sippy cup and saying, “cheers!” and then commanding the strangers with, “now drink.” Most were delighted. Only a couple with serious medical books open missed the endearing quality.

20 minutes spent reading books with both a daughter and a cat in my lap.

In line at the IKEA cafeteria discussing with Eric what to get for Ezri when a small voice said quite distinctly, “Meatballs, please.” What are we doing asking each other when the kid now has the power of speech.

At the library, Ezri running toward the storyroom saying “Rachel. Kitty.” Miss Rachel has a kitty puppet. I also enjoyed her pointing up at the knock-knock house shelf and saying, “Rachel house.” She can be bossy.

Walking towards my car in the lot near the park saying, “Ezri, where did I park?” Only to have my daughter say, “PARK!” and run towards the swings. She was pretty sure I’d just given permission and luckily we weren’t on a schedule so I could oblige.

Jungle Ezri.
