Recently The Boy pointed to something and then pointed to himself, indicating that he wanted me to give it to him. I didn't think much of it at the time, but later it occurred to me that this was the first time he's actually referred to himself. Up to this moment he's just pointed at things and expected us to know that he wanted it. Now he tries to make it plain that it's for him, or he's talking about himself.
I think it's a significant milestone for a toddler, realizing that not everything revolves around him 100% of the time and there are events that have nothing to do with him. (At most only 90% of the world revolves around him.)
