happy 4th birthday baby b with much love, and looking back to when you were just 2, and already understood some basic truths.
I didn't have my glasses on....
itwas a moment i will forever remember. while playing with my 2 year old grandbaby, i watched her face, as she suddenly pointed to herself, and turned to me with a shocked and joyful face, full of pride and unbridled amazement, only to announce, “i is me!, i is me!, i is me!” some adults never attain this level of self-awareness and so funny to watch a baby have an epiphany.

I love that age. Something new every day! “I can bend my fingers! Or “Grass tickles”.
Love this epiphany.

I love this stage! My daughter is 3. The world from their view point is a wonder, “we can’t touch the ducks because they have sharp teeth like whales and SHARKS!” How fortunate you were there to witness (and document) that existential moment!

Well put! It’s amazing how wise young ones can be! The key is to help them learn more things without forgetting the eternal truths – which seems like a very tricky task indeed.
