Chattin' on the phone

Maria is an extremely precocious 3. She keeps us on our toes, for sure!

Tonight we were reading a book when she says, "Wait for me? My phone!" She ran in the other room.

Back she came with her hand to her ear, talking away. And it was very real - she'd wait a few seconds, then answer, then wait, then say, "Oh!" She talked quite awhile and I'm not sure with whom.

She then hung up, and punched out another number in her palm and talked with someone else, finishing with "Ok, bye."

She then hung up and called her tio in Chicago. She had me talk to him too, then took the "phone" over to Mami and had her talk to him. Then it was Papi's turn to talk to tio! Finally, when everyone had their turn, she hung up and stuffed the "phone" in her pocket!

Very precocious! Who needs TV???

Tell her to call for reals! Maria would love it, although she'd probably go mum the minute Ada tried to talk to her! She does that. It's amazing considering her outgoing personality!
