Sentences

Julia has found a new way to communicate: talk with sentences.

It all started last Thursday afternoon, on the flight from Maryland to Nebraska. Our seats on the plane gave us a good view of the wings. Julia would look out the window and say, "airplane." I responded by repeating the word, "airplane," and I would add some other comments. With about 20 minutes left before landing in Omaha, Julia said, "Up in airplane." I was shocked that she strung three words together to make a complete thought, and I repeated her words back to her and gave her a kiss.

Since then, Julia has learned to tattle on Evelyn. I was in another room when I heard a thud, followed by Julia crying. I hurried to the scene of the crime, the living room. I picked up Julia and asked her what happened. Her response was, "Evelyn push." Made that mystery fairly easy to solve.

Some other new Julia sentences are:
"Where is Grandpa?"
"Cheese, pretty please!"
"Where did bunny go?"
"Grandma's chair."
"Yogurt all gone."
"Coat on."

Oh, I can't wait to hear her little sentences. Cheese, pretty please! That's just precious.
