It was Saturday night when it happened. It had been a bit of a dull day with nothing at all remarkable occurring. Because we'd been to the supermarket Mr Husband had bought doughnuts and had promised our tinkers that they could have one, as a treat, if they ate their teas nicely.
Biscuit was taking HOURS as usual, but Wiggles had powered through, scoffing up her peas with a spoon and nomming down great shovelfuls of potato.
She finished and I stood up to cut her a doughnut in half for her treat. Not entirely sure she would appreciate it, or even like it (I hate doughnuts) I asked her "Do you want some of this, darling?" And I showed her the sugary cake over her sisters head.
And then she said it. Three words. Three. Little words. All in a row, nay, in a SENTENCE! Perfectly constructed, succinct and to the point. She bellowed back at me "Yesh peease Mama!"
Her first unprompted sentence! And with a "please" in it! I was so proud I nearly gave her the whole doughnut. But I didn't. I just gave her lots and lots of kisses for being so clever. My little girl does sentences now, whooooo yeah! Magic that!

DeleteLucas says - this is awesome. Pretty soon she'll be talking non-stop and telling you exactly what she wants. Can't believe she ate her peas though.. YUCK!! Wiggles sounds like a perfect kiddy to become a member of the GL Gang - you can grab her badge on our site #magicmoments
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling I'm going to need ear plugs soon! That's sounds fab, I shall mosey on over :) x
DeleteWell done little one! It is amazing.. for ages, they say nothing, then they make sounds, then they start talking and they never stop after that! Love kids! Mel
ReplyDeleteIt's funny really isn't it? We desperately want them to talk, then we want them to shush a bit! Thank you for stopping by, Mel xx
