Ah-ther, ah-ther and ah-ther
Isabel is so lazy in correcting her speech. I think she is lazy, not incapable of pronouncing correctly.
Yesterday when I came back from Jakarta, as expected she was glued to me the whole evening. She took a book for me to read with her. That’s a kindergarten’s book 2, with the first page teaching: Mother, Father, Brother and Sister.
When I read with her, they all became Ah-ther!
She just substituted every thing in the beginning to ‘Ah’, as usual.
So, Mother became Ah-ther. Father is also Ah-ther. Brother is also Ah-ther. Sister is also Ah-ther. LOL!
I insisted that she looked at my mouth, and I emphasized ‘Ma’, ‘Fa’, ‘Bro’ and ‘Sis’. There she goes. She COULD pronounce them correctly if I insisted. LOL!
Actually I noticed this long ago. Bolster (in Chinese Bao-Zhen) is always pronounced as Ah-Zhen, but with me she’d say it correctly ‘Bao-Zhen’.
That’s why it is hard to understand her speech at this stage. Need to figure out what she has substituted with ‘Ah’. Hahahaha!

Sorry not related. I just love your header. I love it so much! I’ve got the opposite of yours. Girl older, boy younger. Hehe.
Oh btw, before I forget… I hope you don’t mind me passing this poem/meme around to you.
I just noticed. I also love your signature at the end of the post. Gives it an extra personal touch. Maybe I should try it too so that the copier (who is still at it) will look silly having my signature on their site. Hehe.
I commented earlier but I think that comment was not approved by CAPTCHA. I wanted to say I just love your header so much. I love it! I’ve got the opposite of yours, boy first followed by girl. Hehe. And I wanted to pass this poem/meme around to you as well.
Aarrgh. My comment got eaten up twice!
I just wanted to say I just love your header. I love it so much! Did you design it yourself or something? I’ve got the opposite of yours, girl first followed by boy and I also wanted to pass this poem/meme around to you as well.
MG: Oh, I’m so sorry that your comments got eaten up, not only twice, but 3 times! I think SKII hate your full name. LOL! Nah, just joking.
Thanks for the nice comments on my header and signature.
The copier, does she copy all images as well? My signature is actually an image. The header and signature are both included in my design package.
BTW, thanks for the Meme.
Hello .. same as MG, I love ur header!! Can teach me?? Mine is getting boring …
ling: Actually my header is part of the design package I purchased from Lara. For detail, you can read here:

Her prices are not very expensive, especially if you take the cheapest package like I do. I paid a little more for the image coz it wasn’t from free domain. If she can find you free pic, you can save some money.
LOL…Isabel is so cute. That’s better than my niece. She don’t know how to call mama and papa yet.
Nice header and nice signature. This is the most enjoyable time and also her cutest time. Treasure it.
A tag for you:

This is cute! Soon as she grow up, I think she will replace all the “ah” with the correct words. Nothing to be worry. Just something fun at the moment. hehe…
Isabelle has the same name with my niece. But, I seldom hear my niece speak. She just don’t like to talk.
Yes, the copier copies the images as well.
aiyu/Jo-N/Everyday: Thanks. Maybe your nieces just not so talkative like Isabel? LOL!
MG: No wonder you said the copier copied the whole barrel! Terrible!
