Verbal to be sure...and Ambidextrous too?

Lizzie's language capability is astounding. We are daily awed by the sentences she constructs. Where does she learn all this stuff? It is amazing to listen to her experiment with words, word forms, and word order. She wrestles with complex thoughts until she is able to make them understood with her words. It's like having a window into her brain...remarkable! And still, in all the amazing language advances, we get the 1 1/2 year-old gems like...

* Boat of cereal (bowl of cereal...and who's to say she wasn't using hyperbole?)
* Time ouch (time outs do hurt, you know)

This time is so rich with growth and learning. We are loving and treasuring every second.

Enjoy this short video Danny took during their "Daddy Day" (every Monday is Daddy Day, to Lizzie's utter delight!). Now I'm wondering if we have an ambidextrous child as well as a verbal child?
