Talking!!!

This morning while I was preparing breakfast in the kitchen with Clint, the cutiest thing happened. I was at the sink and Clint was making coffee when we heard a little voice in triumph proclaim," Dare it is! Dare it is!". We both turned to see Lorna pointing at "Night-Night", her favorite stuffed animal. She had apparently been on a man-hunt for it. It was on the kitchen floor. She of course picked "night-Night" up right away and then left as soon as she came. It was just cute!

A few of her new words are:
"good"..."it's good?"
"Dis"...pointing.
"Dat"..pointing.
"Neigh"..." she will say this while playing with a toy horse"

She loves to pretend to read her story books. She will say things out loud that I don't understand. I know where she's at in the story because she will inflect her words the way I do when I read to her.

Yesterday, I had a last minute request from a lady in student affairs ,that I hardly know. She asked if I would watch her daughters 6 wk. old baby girl for 4 hours. Her daughter helps on a soccer teem and coudn't find anyone to watch her baby for the game yesterday. Her mom was working and her dad was too. I guess she's not married. Anyway, the way she came about my name was the nice lady at the cashier window in the business office. I hardly know any of these ladies! Well, I watched her little sweetie and everything was fine. I was in shock that the mom would leave her with someone she doesn't know. I'm glad she asked me though. Lorna was so excited and it was nice to get a taste of how things will be soon. Yeah!

Gotta run!
