Jack's words are becoming little sentences.. and, goodness, aren't we all in trouble!
I want..He can now say 'Je veux,' that is 'I want.'
He doesn't know yet what he wants but he wants it.
He'll point towards, for example, a pen that's on the table and say, 'Je veux.'
More...During dinner, I'll ask him if he wants 'more.'
He know thinks that 'more' is an object.
'More,' he'll say pointing at his milk, 'more.'
Mine..
When he takes something that belongs to me, I'll say 'mine.'
He thinks this is a cool word and so whenever he wants to keep something he'll say 'mine.'
He'll even go as far as to say, 'C'est mine:' it's mine.
There is...
This morning I woke up to Jack shouting from his bed, 'il y a caca,' and I knew 'there was caca' in his nappy.. and sure enough there was!
Caca
Normally he screams this before rushing off to use the potty!
He's now been allowed to walk about in his pants quite a few times. He's as proud as punch about being such a big boy, until a wet patch appears.
Franglais
I guess you can already tell but the language Jack is speaking for the moment is a mix of French and English - Frenglish - if you like! When I say he's speaking, he's not really.. these are just the well timed utterences he's making. But, it's such fun to see the words 'appear' and to hear his voice and, yes, his opinions!
I hope your voices are all good and well,
much love,

Jack broke a little part of my heart this morning as he constructed one of his first complete sentences. It even had a subject, verb and object. The only problem was that I was the object and I was going in the opposite direction to him.
