some difference

We have a lot of books for both Luca and Maya at home and they each have their own book shelf. One of Luca's favorite pastimes is to take down all the books and make a big mess. He reads too, but has no patience, often grabbing the book from your hand. When he has a book in hand, it's often upside down. When Maya was his age, she loved reading. She liked sitting on our lap, watching the pictures and listening to the stories. She never held the book upside down. 

Luca likes to study things and to learn how it works. Whenever he's in bath, he plays with the faucet for a long while. The kitchen is his playground. He looks at stuff, takes out stuff, puts back stuff, takes out stuff again, testing all the drawers and cabinet doors, sitting inside a drawer to see how steady it is. All the computer gadgets and electronic stuff interest him greatly. He already broke Daddy's Xbox and he almost broke the DVD player -- maybe he already broke it. we'll know that when we watch a movie next time. He never gets tired of turning on and off the TV. You can take him away from the TV 100 times and he'll surely come back to push the button the 101st time. He's that stubborn. 

I ask Maya this morning what she wants to do  in the future. She says she wants to be an art teacher. 

Luca cannot say what he wants to do yet. But I've got an inkling that he'll be some type of engineer.
