Dany Vocabulary
As posted recently, Dany just turned three. Despite her young age, one of her strengths is communication; she can express herself very well, and uses often-impressive vocabulary to do so. Even still, she frequently struggles with some of the more tricky pronunciations of things. Or maybe she just puts her own stamp on them. Here's a list of some of the most recent (and most entertaining) ones:
Noor Dobs (door knobs)
Optagon (Octagon)
Polka Ducks (polka dots)
Bitar (guitar)
Percules (Hercules)
Quarter (Porter, a little boy in our ward)
Mexi-go (Where Dad went this week)
Calapittar (self-explanatory)
Keppitch (an older favorite)
I love listening for what will come out of her mouth next. I especially like to hear her try and pronounce "accidentally", and "actually". And when you ask her to do you a favor, she says "Oh sure!"
Such a big girl. To borrow a phrase one of my friends wrote to me in an email, "(s)he's growing up faster than I gave her permission." Thanks Sarah, that sums it up perfectly.

That girl is getting big! My sister jokes that she's going to start her kids on a twinkie and root beer diet (absolutely no nutritional value) so they'll stop growing. Sounds tempting sometimes...
We just signed The Big Boy up for kindergarten next year. Crazy!
