Dot's Spot

This afternoon, I opened a new pack of crayons for Dot, since the others were worn down to nubs. I gave her a coloring book and she started to color with the crayons in the order they came in – red, orange, yellow – putting them back into the case once she used each one. Then she skipped a couple of crayons. I pointed that out to her, but she just looked back down and picked out the green, blue, and purple. Except for the first three, they weren’t in the right order in the case – but she knew which order the colors of the rainbow were! She colored with the other four colors, too, but off to the side a little bit, not on top of her rainbow. Both Grandma and I were speechless.

We went shopping at Publix today. Three or four people stopped to say how cute Dot was. She was perfectly happy in her stroller flirting with everyone. She was very good today.
