Now I can talk I use my words a lot. I like to explore things so sometimes I get some bumps and knocks. If this happens I say hurt! hand! or hurt! head! and find Mum or Dad and hold out my hand. They will take it and make it feel better. Sometimes Jay does this too. But sometimes Jay is the reason it hurts in the first place.

Sometimes my foot gets caught in my chair or something so I call out to Dad and say foot! stuck! Except when I say stuck it sounds like “tuck”. Dad comes to pick me up which I like. But when I want to go by myself I say down because I want to walk.

I am saying more and more words every day. Here are some of my favourite words.

I like to go riding on the tram. I can even say tram except that it sounds like “tam”. I like the real tram, and Jay also takes me for rides on the sofa tram. The sofa tram is good because I can read a book when I am on it. I like reading books. I spend most of the day taking books to Mum and saying read book! I really like There’s a Wocket in my Pocket. I take it to Mum and say pocket! But my favourite is Old Hat New Hat which I read lots of times every day. I tell Mum it’s time for a story and then I say owd hat and she takes it it out and reads it again. I don’t think Mum and Dad like it as much as I do any more.

Some of the other words I like to say are sock shoe boot and shirt which are useful in the morning when I get up. I also wear trousers but I can’t say that word yet. At night I say brush because I know after my stories it’s time to brush my teeth, and then I go into my room and say bed. But the most useful word is the one I say all the time, to everyone. I put out my arms and say hug!
