Finally!

At last Donovan has spoken some English words!  And his first word was the best sound to my ears....yes, it was "Mama!!" And he said it repeating after me, so I know that it was not just babble.  I was soooo thrilled!   Then I was bragging to Andrew that "Mama" was his first word (Marcail said "daddy" long before "mommy"), and turned to Donovan and said, "I bet you can't say 'daddy' yet, can you?" and he smiled really big and said, "DADA!!"

Just treasure every moment leading up to those... everyone tells you that it goes by so fast, and it is absolutely true.
