Dear Evan-33 Months Old
Dear Evan-
It is so much fun to play with you. You like to play trucks with Daddy and me more than anything. You will request us to come into your room and play trucks. This usually means we each have one car and we will make them talk to one another. Then we will pretend that we are going to the park or the beach. If we go to the park will pretend to go down a slide or ride in a swing, "Wee-Oh" "Wee-Oh".
You are really into playing with older kids now. You seek them out and actually they seek you out too. It is fun to see you have real play with other kids. This month I have heard kids approach you and ask your name. You will shout "Evan" really proudly back at them with a smile. You love to chase and be chased. You try everything. If I tell you that we can't do something as we are about to leave, etc. you will look up at me quite seriously and say "Try?". I have to smile and what can I say to that but yes? It is amazing that your grasp that concept so well.
The Piglets have started to turn three. It is amazing to think that a few months from now you will be three too. We went to James birthday party. I saw that big "3" on the cake and I just can't believe how fast all of this time has passed.
Evan what is your favorite food? "chocolate milk"
Evan what is your favorite animal? "fish"
What is your favorite Truck? "firetruck"
What do you want to be for Halloween? "FIREMAN" or sometimes he will say proudly "Astronaut"(He has been into space lately).
He will identify the planet Earth and then say, "Baby lives there!". He has gone through some kind of word growth spurt as he is talking now so much. He says multiple sentences and things that you would never know he knows...you realize he knows. The past two weeks have been huge with this development.
He loves to count. He will count up to almost twenty by himself. I haven't realy pushed the ABCs or Numbers as I know all of that will come. But he has shown such interest in numbers I can't help but encourage him in his counting. I bought him play money. He has taken an interest into "selling" ice cream. He will stick "money" through the headrest from the backseat of the car and say, "Ice cream please?". It has been a fun game while we hang out in the car. A game that was totally made up and created by you. You have a great imagination and are always making up little scenarios. We still play the "help me" scenario alot but now you add to it more. You love playing with his play kitchen now more than ever. I also bought you a doctor kit that you love to play with in "helping people". You see a "boo boo" truck and will call it out and then always say, "help people". You have a good heart and I love that about you. That is something that cannot be taught but only modeled and truly you just were brought onto this earth with one.
We went to Portland this month. You got to ride the airplane again. You are a fantastic traveler. It is so wonderful as I want to take you so many place. Lately-you have been asking about snow. This Winter we are taking you to the snow! I cannot wait for you to experience it.
I love you more than words can say.
Your Mama
