Zeke's fondness for game shows - especially ones that involve bright colors, quick action, and spinning wheels - has taught him a lot. He is starting to recognize letters, he knows what vowels are, he can 'read' dollar signs (and sees them everywhere), and he has picked up quite a few new phrases: 'on the map', 'prize puzzle', 'buy a vowel? an E!'...
The newest phrase this week was 'seventy dollars!', typically screamed at the top of his lungs and repeated several times. We couldn't figure out at first where he learned that one. Today there was a thank-you card sitting on our bed. When Zeke saw it, he took the envelope, pulled out the card, looked at it, looked up, and said quite naturally 'seventy dollars!'.
Zeke just might be the next host on The Price Is Right.
