It was a word lost in time. One of Alis first to utter but then it went away. Occasionally we heard her say 'Dada' and then it disappeared as fast as it arrived. She replaced it with 'Bob', 'Rob' and 'Bapa' all of which Rob accepted but he longed to hear those 2 syllables again, Da-da. Well today the fateful day arrived. As if something clicked in the little mind of hers and all we heard all morning was Dada Dada Dada. She sat upright on the bed facing us in between us and pointed to me and said "Mama" then she pointed to Rob and said "Dada" and finally to Maddi and said "Whoo whoo". She must have repeated it a hundred times today and each time Robs face lit up. What a wonderful present to give your Dada little girl, I am so proud of you.
