We've been watching and observing this phenomenon for a while now and we're pretty sure that we can pronounce Eric left handed. There are a few things he does with both hands (throwing food, stuffing food in his mouth, grabbing toys etc.) but anything that requires some finesse is accomplished with the left. It is so interesting to see what characteristics emerge from your kids. You have one child and then when you are expecting your second it's hard to imagine that little person being any different from the child you already have. And then of course they show up and they are totally different: Mom's DNA and Dad's DNA have combined in another one in a million combination to come up with this totally unique character.

That "left is wrong" attitude is still around here and there. When my little bro was in the first grade his teacher made him write with his right hand. When my parents found out they got that sorted pretty quickly, but by then my brother had become ambidextrous. He used to start a long sentence with his left and then switch to the right to finish it!
What a cute little guy you are, Eric. Talking on the phone, eating, and drawing with your left hand are such big boy jobs! Way to go!
One of Dale's nephews is a lefty. He asked me to show him how to knit the other day. By the time I had got close to wrapping my mind around knitting left handed his 4-year-old attention had faded :-)
