Amuktha talks

Amu has been getting more and more fluent with language. She uses all kinds of words which soemtimes surprise me. Recent one was "amma help chesthundi" - she means she wants to help me with things.


I felt great!!She knew I was working and offered help. I was more surprised to hear the word "help" from her.

How much ever hard we try to keep her away from English, she still seems to be picking up words here and there. She says "I like it" with an accent and yesterday when she sneezed she said "Bless you" which was a shocker because I always say "Satayish" and "chiranjeeva" when she sneezes and she did not seem to have picked those up.

Well, I want her to know her mother tongue and be able to read and write Telugu. We try hard, hope it works.

She sings the entire "lali lali" song with me in the night, says "ramaskandam" her night time prayer. I am so awed by this little one's grasping power.

Bless you my baby!!!
