We experience God's grace when we see Him go beyond what He has promised, to give us gifts that we could never have created, earned, or deserved. Our children are two of those gifts of grace.

Lucas communication round-up!

At 13 months old, Lucas is well on his way to being a great communicator. Here's the list so far:
  • please (the baby sign -- generally means "more Cheerios")
  • all done (baby sign)
  • sound of a cow ("bvvvvvvvv", which is what "mooo" sounds like when you don't open your mouth while doing it)
  • sound of a sheep (very clear "ba ba ba ba")
  • sound of an airplane (self-explanatory)
Occasionally, I'm also able to convince him to repeat after me the word "Yuck!". Other than verbal (and baby sign) communication, he's also an expert at pointing, whining, and tugging on your pant leg. Screaming occurs when he is in the high chair but the food you put in front of him has run out.

Ah, for the uncomplicated life :)
