Make sure to comment on my PIF entry!
Holly's recent entry reminds me of the things that I fear MrMan is losing or has lost. Recently, he jokingly said "dar-dar," what he used to call vehicles. Now he says car and truck. I get a little sad thinking about my little guy growing up and changing his vocabulary, even if it means more people can understand him. This morning, he said his standard and oh-so-cute, "A'mon," as he grabbed my hand and led me to the living room. I repeated, "A'mon," which he then followed with a very clear, "C'mon." But I think the potentially most heartbreaking language change is the fact that he now, sometimes, calls us "Mommy" and "Daddy." I was ready to be "Mee" for the rest of my life. I can handle the other language changes, but I'm hoping this one is just a glitch.

Posted by: Nola at January 16, 2008 09:33 PMI am terrified that Will is going to stop saying "CHAIRS!" (instead of "cheers!") when he clicks glasses before a meal. Or that he wouldn't say "excuse me, I burp-ted" when he has a little burp. We're so afraid of these corrections that Paul and I have started saying them ourselves, just to add that little bit of reinforcement.
PS: I LOVE the PIF. Totally up for it if you're still developing the plan!
