Cute Baby Words

Taken from this site.

Blankelet.

Alelula.

Don't look up those words in the dictionary.  These are not big words but cute ones from a little creature, my granddaughter, Maddie.  She is only two and half.  I want to keep a collection of how she said certain words at this age.

Blankelet is her version of blanket.  She has graduated to the real pronunciation lately however. While Alelula is how she insists on saying alleluia in church and lately at home when coaxed.

Her mom used to say apati for elephant at this age while her Aunt B used to say Otay instead of Okay until she was four.  So when Maddie says her version of those two words mentioned above,  memories of the cuteness of my own daughters come back.  They are very much welcomed since they warm my hearts on snowy days like today and the coming days.

Be safe on these snowy days.  Bundle up and try recalling some nice heartwarming memories of cute words your kids had said. They are worth reminiscing about.   Life is ephemeral as the poster says,   but these are not some big words that we are wasting our time looking up.  These cute words are precious and priceless part and parcel of the richness of our lives.

Update.  Maddie loves to refer to the elevator as the alligator.  Love this.
