Copy Cat

I'm home for break and one of the perks aside from being able to do free laundry, is to be able to see Thomas. The boy turned 1 on the 19th, and is getting cuter and cuter every time I see him. I missed a few things while I've been gone. The first is that he started walking. He's a little tipsy still, but he manages on his own. The second is that he can talk a little. "Mama", and "Dada", were among his first. However these are not the most common words that he utters. I was admittidly suprised to hear him "speak" for the first time. I had been warned, but just wasn't quite prepared no willing to believe what I heard. Meooowwwww. Yes, the child meows. It's not vague muttering that may be mistaken for baby babble. It is a very pronounced word consisting of four very distinct sounds. Upon further reflection this did not seem so strange. Ben and Debs cats are rather vocal creatures. Children immitate what they hear often. It just so happens that he hears the cats more often than he does people.
