Ok, first, let me tell you that for probably over a year, Lydia has been pretending that she has a friend named Lydia (it progressed into 100 friends named Lydia and 100 friends named Lola that came with us everywhere we went for a while, but anyway!). So she's had her imaginary friend Lydia and a few weeks ago, we met a little girl at the park named none other than- Lydia! They were both thrilled and now all they talk about is their best friend, Lydia. (I think the imaginary one is gone now that she has a real one to talk about.) Now she has to tell everyone she knows at least a few times all about her new Lydia. So tonight she wanted to write an email to Scott. So I let her type type type away on my phone to e-mail him and then I heard her reading it out loud. I remembered what she said so I could translate the random letters that she usually types. Here it is:
From: Ro Bennett
To: YN2 Bennett
Subject: From Lydia
DADDYI AVAFRAENRNAMISLYDIA LOVELYDIA
Translation: Dear Daddy, I have a friend and her name is Lydia. Love,Lydia
After typing it out, I looked closer at what she typed. She actually got a lot of the letters right! I was impressed!! She has been trying to read and sound things out and write, but I was completely amazed at how well she did without any help from me. Scott said he knew what it said before he read my translation. Anyway, Proud Mama moment!!
And here's another...
Tonight we were doing knock knock jokes. Maya has never tried one on her own, but tonight she told her first couple jokes!
#1
Knock, knock!
Who's there?
(long pause.....) Boy.
Boy who?
BOY ON TV! AHHHAHAHAHAHA!
#2
Knock, knock!
Who's there?
(looooong pause thinking of a good one...trying to look around the room...then something caught her eye on tv....) Bacon!
Bacon who?
BACON CHICKEN NUGGETS!!! AHHHHHAHAHAHAHA!
Then it dawned on me..that last one made sense! "Bakin' chicken nuggets!" Must be a coincidence....or she's a genius.
