One of Eli’s favorite books is Corduroy by Don Freeman. He loves to read it over and over and recently started to quote lines from the book as a way of telling jokes. The other night while reading it to him the part where Corduroy says, “‘Could this be a mountain?’ he wondered. ‘I think I’ve always wanted to climb a mountain.'” lingered with me. It perfectly captures Eli at this age where he is able to take all of the simple, everyday things and make them amazing. Books, trucks, trains, walks, runs and airplanes are all just so exciting.
Oh, Eli, you are pretty awesome!
