Sharona, I'm a rookie, too. DD 26 mos. seems to be ahead in most areas, too. Recently I have been really shocked to meet children her same age who cannot talk and who are not bold and bossy.

KateylynsM_om and I have compared notes on the scary memory and giant imagination of our wee ones, and that seems to be different from other children we see the same age.

Our DD is (very) athletic. Her dad has a world ranking as an athlete, so not too surprising. We prioritize singing, dancing, acting, and, lately, art. She insists on cooking - if we enter the kitchen and approach the counter, you can hear the dragging of the kitchen chair across the floor - she is coming to help!

Strong mind, strong body, strong will. Not afraid of anyone. Grabs the hand of moms in the park and drags them off for an adventure. Likes to lead. Is sassy. Is bossy. Is clever. Is exhausting. Is delightful.
