This is Lily's newest word, and it is SO darn cute.

How do you feel, Lil?

ha-ppy!

Do cookies make you happy?

ha-ppy!

What about me? How do I make you feel?

ha-ppy!

She loves to draw...on everything. Especially you. and important papers. And only with pen, because she eats all the crayons.

She loves music and dancing, and bounce-dances up-and-down every time she hears any kind of music, or beat, or cell phone ring.

Lily loves animals, all of them, and knows half of them by their sound and the other half in Creole. Chicken is "poul", sheep is "ba-ba", cow is "mooo", horse is "neigh", cat is "chat" and dog is "Shay" (the name of her doggie.)

She loves her daddy, but has stopped calling him daddy, and is now calling him the much-more-Haitian, "Poppy". Anything he does, she thinks is hilarious. He always gets her riled up at bedtime, and she always knows who to go to when she wants anything.

She's starting to put words together, and you can see her mind whirling as she talks..."Don't know?" she says with her shoulders shrugged, or "What's that!" about anything new... She also said "grampa" for the first time when Greg was here, and "please, Big Bird, Gerta, Bible, Apple and Go" have also entered her vocabulary...SUCH A fun age!
