“All done, Pizza?”

One of the interesting things about watching Gabe grow up is seeing how his mind is developing faster than his vocabulary (which I understand has a lot to do with the brain developing faster than the vocal cords).    He does amazingly well at expressing new concepts with old words.   A few days ago the whole family was enjoying a pizza.   Gabe reached and picked up the last piece, then turned to Stephanie and said “All done, pizza?”.    Steph said, “okay” and Gabe proceeded to eat.    Without knowing the vocabulary, Gabe knew to ask politely whether he could eat the last slice, or whether his mom wanted some.    Sweetie!   Smarty!
