When she learns how to talk ....

When she learns how to talk .. sometimes we couldn't help but to giggle. And every time she sees us giggle, she gets even more excited and she started to do funny faces/expressions to make us laugh even more. She's one girl that is cheerful and happy .. and with her around, we feel full. Indeed, she has brought us.. this household.. so much of joy! She taught us many lessons of life, and we are re-learning life together with her.

I'm happy to document some of her funny words when she just started to learn how to make sentences.

1) Daniel Boy Smiles
2) Jiak Ha Mi (Hokkien)
3) Jiak Bak (Hokkien)
4) Share Share

My talkative little lady at this age is full of fun. As she learns how to communicate/ how to talk like us... I absolutely enjoy every moment of it. Sometimes it's cute, sometimes it's funny .. and most of the time, I'm amazed at her learning skills.
