Not only does he start the day by looking and pointing at the lights; that&#8217;s how he finishes, too.  He&#8217;s constantly begging to be lifted to check out the lights at closer range, and his little circuits of downstairs seem like luminary tours.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve discovered that tapping the various fixtures produces all kinds of different tones, much like playing half-full wine glasses (who knew??), so Finn and I now like to tap them together.  I was impressed that after I used a camera lens cap to do some tapping, he later reached for the same cap and gestured upwards.<\/p>\n<p>Boy, as I write all this, I keep thinking, <i>&#8220;Man<\/i> have we turned into navel-gazing parents or what??
