"Look, Ma"
Let it be known that Hannes has officially reached the age where he learns something every single day. And unlike me, who also like to brag that I learn something every day, he doesn't forget it the next day.
Yesterday was a busy day for Hannes. He learned at least two new things, and perfected a third one to a point where he can say he masters it.
First, last night, as Jessi was lying on the couch, watching TV, and I was just standing in the middle of our living room, all of a sudden, Hannes took his little "walking cart" and .. started to walk, pushing the green thing in front of him. He had been a little intimidated by it before, but now he just gets up and walks.
Second, a little later on, I saw him sitting on the floor, clapping his hands. This, too, has been something that he's been fascinated with, but hasn't been able to do himself.
And last, but not least, Hannes surprised Jessica and me by yelling, "Äiti! Titta" the other day. Now, "äiti" is "Ma" in Finnish, and "titta" "look" in Swedish.
So, basically, he has all the makings of a talk show host. He can yell, clap his hands and walk away.
