take a long look at yourself.
yes, you're talking, listening
and simply enjoying all of the sounds
around you.
months ago i dreamed of alexander identifying the noise of a bird from a distance. that is too much to expect, i know.
it happened.
on our walks he listens for birds, among the noise of the stroller on the bumpy sidewalks he hears them, points to his ear, then signs bird.
i stop in disbelief waiting for him to locate the birds.
he does it.
he points in the direction of a flock of birds high in a tree. what more can i ask for?
