Language development is so cool. The little guy now tries to initiate small talk by asking me questions. Yesterday he said, "Mom, do you like snowmen?" to which I replied, "I LOVE snowmen." There was a bit of a pause and then he asked, "Mom, do you like cookies?"
I've noticed him doing this with other children as well at the snack table.
He's also using the language skillfully to get what he likes. When his friend didn't want to share a coveted toy with him, he said to him, "But I have to go home soon. I need a turn because I have to leave in a minute." I thought this was a very clever tactic and it worked!
