*A portrait of my child, once a week, every week, in 2014.*

Matteo: "Rain and wind co-ming back!  Storm com-ing!  Go out-side!  See storm!"  This is how your language flows these days, several ideas all at once, eventually evolving into a demand.  You are very persistent and language has become your major ally in getting what you want.  That cute little voice, always going up at the end in a sing-song pattern, is hard to resist.  As you can see, I let you go outside to play in the rain storm, and you adored every second of that unique childhood pleasure.
