I’ve been teaching Mara what to say when she meets people. So now she randomly walks up to me during the day and says, “Hiiiii, Mommy! Nice mee-chew!” [Nice to meet you.]
“Name–Mawa. Two Dib-dub Day!” [Which translated essentially means, ‘My name is Mara, and I turned two on Christmas Day.’]
Then she walks up to Micah. “Hiiiii, Micah! Nice mee-chew . . .” repeating the entire drill. I just laugh.

Tonight at dinner, Mara pointed at the back of my pants. “Uh-oh, Mommy! Sticker on back pants!”
Sure enough, I reached back there and pulled off one of Mara’s Hello Kitty stickers that are posted everywhere around the house at this point. If she were just a little older, I might have suspected that she stuck it on me! But she’s too young.
Still Mara smirked at me and shook her head, saying, “Lilly [silly] Mommy!”
I couldn’t resist laughing too!
I love the ‘early-talking’ stage! It’s so precious! Your little redhead is certainly a cutie!
Thanks so much for your comments on the Selah today over at my place–I just love your heart and what you had to share with your own season of ‘being on the move’! So great to ‘meet’ you and I’m enjoying perusing your place!
Blessings!
