Talking Hands

Eva has a great imagination and a lightening quick memory.  Sometimes I’ll hear her quoting and acting out entire scenes from “Charlotte’s Web” or another kids movie.  When I’m telling Dave stories about what the kids or said during the day, she’ll sometimes correct me on the details.  It’s amazing how observant she can be, even when you think she’s not paying attention! 

 

The other day I overheard her talking to someone named “Jeff” and asked her, “who’s Jeff?”   She looked at me with both feet in the air and her hands pointed towards one another like puppets, and said, “this hand is Jeff, and this hand is Jimmy, and my feet are Mommy and Daddy.”  An imaginary four-way conversation – quite a talent for a 4-year-old!
