Certainty
I know Iain is growing more aware of himself and his surroundings by particular behaviours that he sometimes exhibits. Today was a case in point. Yoghurt, or Fromage Frais, is a little treat we often give the boys after their lunch, if they've eaten properly. Iain had finished his sandwich and had been pointing to the fridge. Not in the frantic manner, bordering on tantrum, he sometimes employs. I asked if he wanted a yoghurt, and he simply nodded.
It's remarkable that his brain is developing so much that he is able to comprehend my words.
Anyway. I placed the small yoghurt pot, lid intact, on his high chair table. Picking it up, he frowned, and promptly handed it back to me. The message, "Daddy, the cover is still so I'm not able to eat it. Please will you open it?"
With no hindrance, Iain polished the pot off in no time!
