I have been so worried about Emma talking. I just have felt maybe I wasn’t doing enough to encourage her. The past weekend has been nuts with me trying to finish a homework asignment and I was left feeling so guilty for neglecting my time with Emma. Well, Monday night, the night I turned in my assignment, I came home and Mom (who was watching her while I was in class) told me she is trying to say “Pablo”, one of her favorite Backyardigan characters. Well, today when she was sitting on my lap she pointed to Pablo in one of her books and said “Pab-o.” It was soooo cute! I could just eat her up.
For some reason, too, she loves my neck. She points to my collar bone protrusions all the time and just smiles. Maybe she thinks they are buttons that do something…I don’t know. But, I always tell her that my “neck.” She’s been trying to repeat it but it sounds like “dek”. LOL! Anyways, it is just so precious to hear her little voice coming out. Just more of her to love!
