J is rather talkative and he loves to imitate what others are saying... he is also able to articulate his name, G and my full names by now. He's also fond of listening to kids' songs and he even knows their titles and order by heart!
Some of the conversations that took place recently:
Me: 小星星 从那里来?
J: 这边来!
Me: 世上只有...
J: 妈妈好!!!
Me: Shall we brush your teeth?
J: DON'T WANT!!!!!! or NO NEED!!
Me: Then you want to see the doctor?
J: (whimpers) Don't want...
J: Papa, sit down (points to a spot specifically)/ stand + kick ball
G: Don't want
J: whimpers....
Me: say "Papa, please"
J: (quickly) Papa please
Upon hearing his little brother crying, J dashes off to his cot to check out the situation. Then he runs out to tell the confinement nanny "Auntie, 弟弟哭哭!"
