I will go ahead and declare here that Antoinette is a Mama’s girl. She alternately calls me “Nanay” (Filipino term for mother) and “Mommy”. She sometimes mixes the two and then corrects herself. Amazing how her language development is progressing as she is building two vocabulary sets. This is a video of that one morning when she woke me up, teased my mole, and told me to get up because she wants egg. 14 June 2015
Video: Get up Nanay
