The Words My Two Year Old Knows

My dear son Hector, I wonder how old you'll be when you first start reading mummy's blog. Well when you do this one's for you. It's about time you got some more attention. You got me going with all this actively embracing motherhood fun in the first place!

Well you're almost two years old now, and I think you know one hundred and twenty-eight words in English. These words are all ones you can say yourself.

(You understand thousands of course, including the Turkish ones you've heard in "family talking Turkish" time over dinner. But even I don't intend to list and categorise those here as well.)

Now before I share this list of words, please help me with one thing: What on earth does "afaee" mean? You say it ALL THE TIME.

Here you are saying afaee:

Ok so here are your words. I'm impressed. I'm looking forward to your comment my darling!
