Yesterday I asked my son where his nose is. He pointed to it and told me what it is. I repeated the question with his ears, eyes, mouth, tummy, and toes. He told me what they all were and pointed to them all. To make the game even more fun, I asked him to point to Mommy's eyes, nose, ears, and toes. He pointed to them all, even getting up and walking down to where my feet were and grabbing my big toe. He's growing so fast!
He also escaped the nursery at church on Sunday morning, but that's a whole other blog post.
The strangest thing I noticed this morning though is that my son is left handed.
This came as quite a surprise since I'm very right handed and Nate is ambidextrous but writes with his right hand. 2.0 is definitely left handed though. He will start eating with his left hand and switch the utensil back and forth between his hands. He high fives with his left hand, tries to brush his hair with his left hand, sleeps on his left side, tries to put his left shoe on first, and pushes his left arm through his sleeves first.
Nate noticed it too this morning and then revealed to me that when he was younger, he also was left handed but was forced to use his right. Well that information would've been good to have before. I was just starting to think that our son was special...
I'm excited to watch him develop more dexterity. Nate asked me if I would force him to use his right instead of his left and I just don't think there's a reason to do that. Besides, geniuses are left handed. :)
