Syona woke up that morning and Shilpa asked her to say "I love you" and corny as it is, it was the first day that she was able to formulate those words. Since then though we have not heard her say those words. That week she is also able to count the numbers from 1 to 10. She just need queues of repeating the word from us (Syona says 1, we say 1, Syona says 2, we say 2...all the way up to 10). It isn't always complete, most of the time she still stops at 4, but she definitely knows what comes next. I think the caterpillar book has really helped with this, and the new montessari type card that Shilpa has created for her one night. Her favority number is 8... I'd like to say that this is the chinese side of her coming out, but I think the reality is that she really enjoyed that episode of Elmo/Sesame Street.
PS- Her shirt says Daddy's little Monster.
