Days of our Laives

Two funny conversations that show Mei's idiosyncratic way of speaking. Mei: Where is my dolly? Me: I don't know. Mei: (thinking) mmm, ish want. Me: ish want? What do you want? Mei: ish want Me: ish want? Mei: ISH WANT! Me: ish want?...oh RESTAURANT (the last time she played with her doll was at a restaurant) Mei: (playing make believe) my baby is eating aack Me: What's aack? Mei: aaack Me: naack? Mei: aack! Me: mack? Mei: AAAACCCKKK! Me: (laughing) ack??? Mei: (big sigh) Me: (after 30 seconds): oh!  snack? Mei: yes Ok, this is a totally lame blog entry, but it's not for anyone else but for myself to remember my little Mei.  Someday, she is going to speak clearly, and I won't remember these early conversations.

Here's something I want to remember.  Kira is about 4.5 right now, and whenever she talks on the phone with someone, like Natalie, she talks about party planning.  She lists everything from invitations, to cups, to food items, to favors and decorations.  She's a weirdo.  I wonder where she gets it from.
