Bits & Pieces

I was changing her diaper. She suddenly blurted : "Fish Ball!".
I was curious why she said that, I just guessed and said, "Zara thinks Zara's toes look like fish ball is it?". I pointed to her toes.
Zara looked at me (as though I was stupid), then started pointing her finger at her mouth while saying, "Mum mum *point point* (Chinese: eat), Fish ball."
(Tuyam said she does that very often, when she asked for something to eat, and Tuyam couldn't understand her, she'll point to her mouth and sign to us, like we're some bozos)

This morning, while at play, she shouted, "Mita Boo (Mr Blue), where are you? Want suck tum (thumb)!"
(She has the habit of sucking her thumb while holding her soft toy Mr Blue)

While pushing her in the stroller yesterday, Zara counted, "For, fai, sik, sehwen, egg" And repeated. Asked her to do from One, it will go something like "One, Egg, Ten." (She knows they are numbers but doesn't know the sequence).

Zara's reciting the nursery rhyme Hey Diddle Diddle sounds like this:

Diddle Diddle, Cat the fiddle, Cow oh the moon, spot, away spoon

(Actual, Hey Diddle Diddle, The Cat and the fiddle, The Cow Jumped over the moon, The Dog laughed to see such sport, And the dish ran away with the spoon)
