Accomplishments

Luke loves his puzzle pieces - they're simple, two piece puzzles matching a color or texture with an object (animal, fruit, etc) and we've been using them to practice colors with him. We decided to put away the textures, focusing on the colors, but he wouldn't have it. On Sunday he put all the pieces together, all by himself. We simply watched him - we were incredibly impressed. He knew many of the names, which surprised us and he never became frustrated, even when two pieces didn't match. Luke calmly looked for the correct piece.

And when he was finished, he proudly admired his work, organized neatly (thanks, in part, to Daddy) and triumphantly yelled "puzzles!" and "perfect!"
