The loveliest sound in my world
Just a couple of days ago Malkias (who just turned one) started saying “daddy.” He totally skipped the “da” and “dada” stages and went straight for the full word. He pronounces it with a very long first A, so it’s “daaaady.” I find this utterly adorable, and I’m experiencing a new surge of love for the wee fellow. (In other news, Maia was today heard calling him “Little baby fella.”)
I recorded a brief snippet of us having a “conversation.” Here it is.
Do you think it’s as cute as I do?
(Apologies for the loud crackle a few seconds in. Malkias goes wild when he sees m iPhone and I was having to maneuver it rapidly to keep it out of his line of sight.)

This is lovely. Your sharing your children with us all is so generous. To get to hear your lovely son’s voice as he says ‘daddy’ is simply beautiful. And yes, I do think it’s as cute as you do!
