Claire, aged (almost) 2
Apr. 27th, 2008 12:14 pmClaire is the most energetic and fearless 23-month-old toddler I know. On Thursday evening we dropped Elizabeth off at her music class, and Claire and I explored Burlington's Central Park.
Claire flings herself down slides that Elizabeth is afraid of, and boldly tries to climb ladders and poles intended for much older children. One of her favorite games is leaping off the back of the couch. She's small for her age. Her one-year-old cousin is the same height as she is, so watching Claire is a bit like watching an animated doll.
When Elizabeth was this age, she was talking in complete sentences. Claire has trouble forming words, but her Ewok-babble is consistent and purposeful, and she understands just about everything we say to her.
