Today's Entry: Body parts and their location

2004-11-22 - 6:28 p.m.

Body parts and knowing where to find them is a pretty useful skill to tuck away for future use. The need to show off those body parts starts when mom and dad begin to ask, 'Where's your mouth?' or 'Where's your nose?'

Most of the time, the kid develops this skill by pointing to the parent's face and touching the requested apendage with a snot-drenched finger. This provides no end of entertainment for the parents, and the inevitable sharing of usually virulent microorganisms.

But nobody seems to mind very much, since we're all too busy celebrating the next step on the way to adulthood. Isaiah has just this week learned a few facial body parts to exhibit on command. This was his response a few minutes ago to my request to 'show me your tongue.'

He's fortunately on the mend from a very tough weekend of the flu, cutting teeth, and feeling generally pukey. He was so miserable, he didn't want to be put down. Brenda called him her little Klingon today! Nice to have Jack back in his usual happy disposition.
