The other day Dean, Joe and I went to Target to pick up a few things and while in the store Dean and I wandered into the toy section. He went from one toy to the next with wide eyes, saying "oh wow" with every few steps he took. Some toys would cause him to literally stop in his tracks, his little body would tense up and he would point and attempt to tell me something about the toy that had caught his attention. I was blown away by Dean’s ability to recongnize many of the different characters from some of the popular kids programs. He recongnized Elmo saying "melmo;" Dora and Deigo; Lightning McQueen and Mater; Little Bear and probably more than that, but those were the ones I was able to catch onto. The good news is that we were able to get out of the store without purchasing a single toy, don’t ask me how we did that.
Below is a sampling of Dean’s art, a recent picture he colored of melmo at Daycare.
