talks like a woman sometimes - her sentences are growing by leaps and bounds. If I hug her too hard “Mommy, please no breaking me” if I ask her if she is a “Wild Thing” “yes Mommy, I am, grrrrrr.”
Last night while watching hockey with her father she spoke to the players; “You, listen to me now, sit down in time out! No hitting! Are you listening to me? Time Out.”
Today in the car “Mommy, I wear the pink shoes today? See? Pink shoes, with buckles!” Then “look, I see a bird, a big bird Mommy!” and “Bus! Daddy’s Bus” at EVERY Metro bus she sees, even if he is in the car with us.
And then there is the dancing as she sings “Sing A SONG, Sing A SONG” (from the Sing by the Carpenters). She stands on her stage (the coffee table) and dances in circles then stands with her hands up in the air, swings them down in a great U as she squats and then tippy toes at the far end as she reaches skyward again. Real modern dance I tell you.

What a sweetie! Wish I could see her in person. I’d be interested in seeing Maya and Xander have a conversation. He always asks me, “Remember when I…” as if it was years ago!
