My thoughts for today

This post was inspired by Penny, who was in turn inspired by some random blogger. Apparently there are rules and regulations for answering these questions, but whatever. I’m a rebel. Anyway, here we go.

It’s pretty cool to see Ethan developing language skills and a vocabulary. He’s only 15 months old and already he knows a bunch of words. He still needs a translator for those who don’t spend hours a day with him, though. So here to help is the official Ethan-to-English dictionary. Study up!
