Birthday Present for Daddy

Mommy made Daddy some lasagna and homemade bread for his birthday (he's really old...32!!). And since I can't do that yet (and I don't have any money coming in from an allowance to buy him a gift), I had to figure out something else to give Daddy.

So, I gave him the gift of hearing my first word. And it's the best word there is. It's all over my books and it makes sounds, there are three of them in the house next door (who I adore) and one here in my own house who makes me laugh when I try to get him to play with me. Mine's name is Cosmo. Yup, you guessed it, I said "DOG!" Isn't that a great first word? And what's better is that Daddy got home early enough from work and I was still thrilled enough with myself to say it to him when he prompted me (and he wanted to hear it alot!). So, all-in-all, it was a good birthday present. I think it might have even been better than Mommy's lasagna!


(Editor's Note: Due to the extremely finicky nature of Kai and how he sometimes says "dog" all the time and then as soon as the camera's in the same room and turned on, he won't say it at all, there is no live video of him saying "dog." We apologize for the inconvenience and hope you'll stay tuned to next week's entry to see if maybe by then his mother or father will get their act together enough to get him on video saying "dog.")
