Maeva is now 16 months old and has light blondish hair that gets into her eyes while she's running. She is a joy, this child of mine. Here I go again, raving about my child like she is the first baby to be born into this world. I'm suffering from OPD. Overexcited Parent Disorder. "This is the act of being acutely excited about a child's action despite how easy the action and despite having other parents around who think youre a complete nutter" For example, I took Maeva Moelagi to the Base playground yesterday and she happily runs up the steps to the slide, as she slid down, i ran to the bottom and jumped all over excitedly at her accomplishment. She did look at e strangely, wondering with this woman is making such a big fuss about her sliding???
Anyhow, aside from that, I'm grateful to announce that with all the toys she has at home, this week, she actually took an interest in stacking the colored blocks into rows and reading the "Freddie the Frog" books. Gui has even been able to put her to sleep by "reading" her a book...wow!!!!(okay, there's my OPD syndrome again). On the down side, she is developing an "attitude". When I tell her "AUA" "NON", she will pretend to be distracted and then return to what she's NOT meant to be doing. This will continue until I remove her forcefully. In which case she turns angrily and throws something, anything at me, or "force" herself to cry in a very dramatic fashion. Ia, sosoo loa ma le po i le goo o baby girl!! She is however very cheerful at most times, she now gives kisses and can wave(well for the last few months) and she's very cheeky when she laughs, she covers her mouth and bends her knees as she giggles...oka, where does she get that from???
