Eva makes us laugh! She is so funny, smart, and for a one year old is able to verbalize so many things. But, her trick of late stops us in our tracks. She now asks why! Isn't that something that is supposed to begin when a child is around 3 or so? If I say, "Eva, we cannot play with markers anymore-she says, "why"? After I tell her it is because she eats the tips off of them, she lays her head on the ground and pretends to cry. When she looks me in the eye and says, "oh un" I know she is sweetly begging for more lotion. But, I have to tell her no. What does she do? She asks "why?" Then, I have to spout off a mini dialog about how the last time she got a hold of it while I was on the phone with Grace's doctor, she managed to pour out an entire bottle and wipe it across every reachable surface. Why is a commonly used word in our household. Between three children we hear it often enough, but it still surprises us when our 15 month old shouts it out!

We, too, love the word "why." I am nervous for you with this little firecracker! When my kids ask me "why" I burst into a rendition of the song "Why" from our favorite Veggie Tales movie "Queen Ester." You should check it out. They hate it when I sing in reply to any question that they have, but it keeps me SANE since I hear that question so much!
I could swear this picture is of Grace! Since when did Eva's hair get so light? Maybe its just me.
15 months is early, but OH SO Cute! You never know until you ask why, she is one smart cookie!
