It is true after all that girls are more linguistically inclined. Jayna is picking up so many new words that it is hardly possible to keep track of them anymore. And for those things she can't yet pronounce, she made up her own words for them.
I was taken aback when she actually told me "Pain, pain." when she accidentally hit her head with a toy. I nearly fell backwards when she said "Carry" while stretching out her hands to me. And when I asked her, "What must you say if you want something?" She could reply with "Please." And these are word I did not even teach her explicitly. Needless to say, words that I took the effort to teach her are mostly well-learnt such as juice, eat, diaper, sleep, door etc, and the names of some of her favorite toys.
Let's pray that she'll get less fussy as she becomes better at communicating her wants and needs.
