We huddled up by the light of the window where we read books and did puzzles. R had picked out some animal shape puzzles that B hadn't done before. B wasn't real successful on them and disappeared into his room. He came back with an easier puzzle of simple shapes. He rocked those and judging by the way he was motioning for us to clap for him I think he knew it.
P.S. While I'm bragging about the kid can I also tell you he pointed to all the blue shapes and said blue (well, 'boo' actually but those that speak B talk in the house knew what he meant).
P.P.S. I'm just gonna go ahead and admit that working in the 18-24 month room at church had me doing all sorts of skills testing on B today. He'll be in that room in a matter of a few short weeks and I found myself comparing him to the other kids in the room. Why do we (please tell me it's not just me) do that? I know he's perfectly ready to move up. I know he's doing just fine. Yet, I still found myself in teacher mode working through a checklist of skills.
Anyhow...... B is a puzzle master and he aced the skills test. ;)
