Noticing things

Today when I was helping Hunter put his toys away, I lined up his two racing cars at the top of his zigzag track to put the thing away. But Hunter watched me and said, "No Mommy, you did it wrong" and carefully picked up the little yellow taxi and precariously turned it around, the "right way".

I didn't even really notice it, because the cars are nearly symmetrical and go down either way they're faced. But though Hunter was never taught, he knew which end of the car was forward and which end was backward, and made sure they were placed correctly.

Once again, I am amazed at the little things he notices, the things we think he's "too young to understand". Little kids truly are little geniuses
