Yes I Said Yes I Will Yes
(a.k.a. Another lit reference blogpost title to test Aunt Kathy, or at least her googling skills)
Up until a week or so ago, Fiona didn't use the word "yes." If we asked her if she liked her O's, she'd say "like O's". If we asked if she slept well, she'd say "sleep well."
But she's figured out what "yes" means, and now uses it when she means it. It's kind of nice, given how much more often we're still hearing the word "no."
My favorite use of "yes" was recently when Mommy tried to explain how living creatures feel things (I plan to post more about that soon). Fiona listened intently, but with a perplexed look on her face, until she was finally asked "is Mommy confusing you?"
Fiona nodded and declared "yes."
