My Little Decision Maker

Sonia's new favorite word is "heavy." Everything is heavy: the chair, the purse, the ceramic dalmation... Anyway, yesterday she began to say "happy." She learns a new almost every day now. She picks out about 1/3 of the alphabet on the keyboard.

On Monday night, I took her for a walk in the stroller. It was a bit cold and I asked her, "Do you want to go home or continue on to the park?" And she looked at me blankly like she always does when asked to make a decision. So I said again, "Do you want to go home?" Again, no reaction. So I said, "Do you want to go to the park?" And she smiled and said under her breath, "Yeah..." It was so neat. That was the first time that she ever made a decision when asked. It was really neat to be there for that. Love it!
