Learning to Speak

[jianantonic]

I'm in Virginia for two weeks with my family. Week one was spent in Williamsburg, and we got to my parents' place in Charlottesville today. I haven't seen the girls since Christmas, and they're really growing up. Bess has so many adorable affectations of being three. She can talk, but her pronunciation is a little wonky, and her syntax is hilarious

Charlottesville is beautiful! There's a bed and breakfast place called PROSPECT HILL I wanted to stay at one time because an old ex boyfriend's family can be traced back to the people who originally owned that place and the land surrounding it.

Sounds like you're having fun Meg and I got your postcard a while back, many thanks! That cat sticker was very, very cute :)

My little brother said a lot of cute things about imaginary characters at age 3-4, and now he's a popular local karaoke personality, so chances are good for Bess to be hilariously cute as she grows up.

I posted a Bessism from dinner on Facebook, but I want to record it here, too. We're at dinner at this Thai restaurant, and she rips two loud farts. Everyone is looking around to see where it came from, and she owns up, "I farted! I farted!" We all pretend to be grossed out, mostly because we're in public, probably, and she goes "It's OK! It was a good one!"

Awwwwwwesome. I hope that some day, we can say that about our periods.
