My new pointing technique is unstoppable!

Ella loves to point. It's the first thing she does when she wakes up. At first it was just an indication that she noticed something.

Then, several days ago, she discovered that if she wanted something she couldn't get at, all she had to do was point and someone would probably get it for her (providing, of course, that it wasn't a razor blade or Monopoly house).

She has also started to use her lil' ol' pointer to answer questions (e.g., "where's momma?", "where's the doggie?", "which investment will maximize our earnings while exposing us to the least financial risk?").

Even more exciting, she is using The Point to tell us to look at something cool she has discovered (a gestural "Look, Daddy, look!).

I feel privileged that she wants to share her world with us.
