El Sol esta en mis ojos

Jasmine has recently said a rash of cute things which I will talk about in this post. In addition to her backseat driving phrase "Please Lady" she has now begun telling us to be careful and "Slow Down" when we are driving. We do not know where she has learned this since neither one of us tells the the other to slow down. It makes us laugh though - just today when driving over a speed bump she said "Mommy, be careful". We are glad she is looking out for our safety.

Jasmine has also expressed her dislike for the sun in her eyes. She will say "Sol en mis ojos" (sun in my eyes) and then promptly say "Go away Sol!". She has now begun asking for her lentes (glasses) when we go out in the sun. The she will say that it is all better as soon as she puts them on.

She is also learning good manners. She has always been good at saying please and thank you but now she has added, "Daddy, feet down" when her dad puts his feet on a chair and she asks him to sit down if he is standing while she is eating.

She likes to point out things to us by saying, "Look right there, behind you!" even if the object she is pointing out is not directly behind us. It could be in front of us, beside us or occasionally behind us! She has learned this from watching Blues Clues!

Some things she says we don't know where she has learned them from. But she is at an age where she interacts with others and so we don't always know what she is being exposed to. What we do know is that she is fully communicating and that makes life funny!
