Baby Talk

Baby Ali has been trying to talk since last week. Some of his favourite “words” are “huhhh”, “whooo” and “ahpoo”. At times, Baby Ali actually looked as if he was trying to strike conversation with mommy! Based on my observation, Baby Ali usually likes to start a “discussion” first thing in the morning. I too find myself talking gibberish to Baby Ali and a few days ago, while trying to calm Baby Ali down as he began to cry, I think I started a whole new language. I even threw in some “ka kaw ka kaw” and “tuki tuki”(inspired from the movie Evolution) for good measure. And it worked! In calming Baby Ali down that is, the jury’s still out on starting a new language.
