music to my ears

We've decided that Luciya is working her way through the alphabet, or perhaps through the vowels, starting with A. She really has a good understanding of the letter A and its variations after extensive practice the last few months. She can squawk it: "agh!"; squeal it: "AAH!"; and screech it: "aaaaaaaahhhhhhh." Quite good.

I have been getting a leeelte bit worried, though, because she hasn't been making any consonant sounds (ba, ma, ga), and those were *supposed* to have started around 6 months of age. Only aahhh and its variations.

Until this morning.

Child is saying "mama." Repeatedly. All day. I cannot handle it.

See how she sucks in her lower lip? Isn't it too much?

She's been at it all day. And her attitude has been stellar. I think she feels very accomplished!

"Mama" is sooo proud! I mean, really. Jubilant.

Mama is such a beautiful word - and reserved for those who are abundantly blessed. Yeah for Teeny Tiny and LeeLee!
