Your grandma’s name is “Fatemeh” and for short, we told you to call her “Maman Faty”. You call her Fatty!!

I was talking to you about peeing in a putty. I told you: “I will get you a putty, که توی پاتی جیش کنی”.

All you got from this conversation, was: “فاطی جیش کنه” !!!!!

For the first time you said I love you to Afsaneh.

We told you to kiss her goodbye, when she was going down in the basement. You sent her a kiss and said “I love you”. 😀

In “Toys’r us” you showed interest in dolls for the first time. You asked me to put a doll of Dora on the floor of the store for you, then you sat in front of it and said “I love it”. You did the same thing again and again with some similar toys including bubbly guppy dolls.

You are REALLY ADORABLE. Nobody can resist you, sweetheart.

You have many toys and most of them play music when you press a bottom or play with them. You like them all, and have never been sensitive to any of those tunes.

But there is one specific toy, with two princesses on two horses coming down a slope. There is a “mary go round” on this toy and horses can be fixed on it and go round. When the merry go round starts, a tune starts. I played it for the first time a couple of nights ago for you. You got sad, and started crying really sadly. Then you said “sad horse”, and you said “horsy dance nakoneh”. So, I stopped the music, and told you not to listen to it if it bothers you.

I myself had a similar reaction to a tune on TV at around your age. A close friend of my mom who is a psychiatrist, and said that specific tunes may make some people sad. It is true about me, even now, and seems to be true about you. So, beware. Stop listening to a music if it makes you sad.

You are lovely and adorable.

You use specific expressions and idioms. In your music class, when one of our friends (Mahta) opened the door and you were standing there, you told her: “After you”!!

Your first full sentence in English was: “this is mommy. this is baba. this is Deeba”. It was almost two weeks ago, when you were introducing us to Thomas and Persy!!

In Rodvin’s birthday on December 28th, you were repeating to yourself: happy day to you!!

You have three stuffed “hello kitty” dolls, but we told you that they are Binoo, because you love Binoo. You were playing with one of those Kitties, and you told her half in Farsi and half in English: “نترس Binoo, I am here”!, after you threw her down a slide that you made by putting the cushion on the chair, and when she landed on the floor !

You are REALLY ADORABLE.
