Emma-isms
Emma is probably learning a word a day and cracks me up with the stuff she says.
On Sunday the nursery worker brought her to me for a diaper change. As he handed her to me she proudly declared to everyone within earshot "I poop!"
This morning after daddy sneezes she starts repeating over and over, "bless you! bless you! bless you!"
She can't say her m's yet, so milk is "gilk" and instead of calling me mommy when she is looking for me I hear her calling "liz! liz! liz!"
A couple of weeks ago we're watching a reading/spelling program on PBS. The word FOG pops up and Emma looks at it and says "F - O - G" I could not believe it. Do kids really learn letters this young? I thought it might have been a fluke, but on Sunday I was writing letters to see if she knew them and sure enough, she started naming them! Not all of them were right, but enough to amaze me. She also counts, not necessarily in order but if I start with 'one' she goes to "two, thwee, six, seven, nine..."
