Trees

Evan has an amazing comprehension for words. He understands so many now and can point to a variety of things when asked where something is. He does it alot when we are reading to him at night before bed. It is a fun activity to do with him during the day too. "Evan, Where's the dog?" Now not only does he point at a dog but he pants too! He has this book that I have been reading to him for months. It has a picture of a cartoon image of a dog. Whenever I get to that page I have always made a panting sound. I am amazed at how he is retains information as we haven't read that book in a while and all of the sudden now he pants when he sees a dog. It is so funny.

Today we were in the car going to Westwood. Traffic was horrible and there was a detour along Sepulveda. It is a tree-lined street. We have a sunroof in the backseat and keep the mesh open for Evan to view out. I stole a look at him from the rear view mirror to find him staring up at the trees. I said to him "Evan, where are the trees?" He quickly pointed up identifying the trees passing by. A few minutes later I heard him say "Trees". He was still pointing.
