Eh, Close Enough


Dear Laney,

Your spoken vocabulary these days consists of "Mama," "Ella," "Hi, Gus!" (pronounced "Hyguh!") and "Uh-oh." You seem to have dropped "Dada" somewhere along the way, probably because "Uh-oh" takes up so much of your time.

Just because you don't say many words doesn't mean you don't know and understand about a hundred more, like "Shoes," "Pizza," "Diaper," etc.

An example -

This morning, you were eating a bowl of blueberries, when I felt your feet and hollered "This baby needs some SOCKS!" So, you crawled over to the laundry basket and pulled out a pair of socks that Peg Peg left behind. I figured we should just celebrate the moment instead of taking the time to talk about the difference between Laney's socks and big girl socks. So I just kept my mouth shut and put 'em on you.



Crazy floral pants and rolled-down black socks? Check. All you're missing now is an AARP card and a ticket to Boca.

Love,
Mom
