Evan, can you take off your socks?

Tonight for the first time, Evan responded to something that I asked him to do.  I put him on the changing table before bath time and was singing to him.  Then I stopped and asked him if he could take off his socks.  And he promptly did just that!  It was really the first time that he let me know he understood what I was saying.  Even though this is the hardest job in the world, it just keeps getting more fun!
