my lil wordsmith !!


Yes its official....LilP has taken after her momsy...and has just discovered the use of her vocal chords and every waking moment is spent excercising them like there is no tomorrow....When she is not bawling her lungs out for something that she absolutely must have, she is seen talking nineteen to the dozen in a language, most of which none of us follow, but all of us nod away to...lets call it lilPspeak...so whether it is reading her book aloud, or imitating momsy chatting on her mobile...we hear the sweet (and sometimes shrill too) strains of lilPspeak through the day....

In a bid to discourage her loud screams...I tried telling her that if she screams too loudly...then her throat will ache (a.k.a "bu" by lilP)...so everytime she yells, I very patiently ask her...if you shout, where will it ache...and she promptly...touches her throat and says "bu"....and quitens...But just the other day I had to eat my own words.....I was telling her off ina slightly high pitched tone..(Ok...might have been more than slight...but whatever)...and her highness....comes to me and looks straight in my eye, touches my throat and says "mumma bu ne"...Needless to add...it sealed my lips...for a long long time:-)
