First Words of the 14 month-old

First, J said "Uh oh!" whenever she dropped something.

Then came "Thank you".

2 days ago, she said "Welcome" - after I said "Thank you".

Her latest is a variation of "Uh oh", a.k.a. "Uh oh NO!"

It's just amazing to observe how her neural pathways are forming and to witness how her brain is just soaking in everything she hears.
Gotta watch my tongue now.
Consider James 3:5-10:
5Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. 6The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole person, sets the whole course of his life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.
7All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and creatures of the sea are being tamed and have been tamed by man, 8but no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness. 10Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be.
