Three Precious Words

One of our little guys here has lately started repeating words, calling people by name, and greeting those who enter or leave the nursery. for a while he has been saying my name, and any time he sees me he shouts 'emelyne!' when i leave the house and he's out on the balcony, he calls out to me and loves when i greet him back! lately he has started to blow kisses without being encouraged to first. he says 'bye bye' and waves, then puts his little hand to his mouth, and with a 'mah!' he blows a kiss.  his latest accomplishment has been to repeat three very precious words: 'i love you'. i say his name, he says 'mmm?', i say 'i love you', and he says 'ah lah loo' with the same intonation, eyes glowing. it's incredibly precious! it warms my heart to see him advancing so much. i'm amazed at how much i love this little guy with a huge personality!
