Solanne spoke her very first full verbal sentence today: "No! don do dat!" (No! Don't do that!).
It is a familiar phrase in our household, most often used by Maïa when her sister does something aggravating. I hadn't realised how prevalent it really was until the sentence flew forth from Solanne's mouth, with Maïa's intonation and all.
Maïa's first sentence was "Maïa stairs self." That ushered in (or confirmed) Maïa's independent spirit. Solanne's first sentence, I believe, also reveals something important about her personality: she won't let anyone walk all over her. Both independence and strength are fantastic qualities in people; they're just difficult qualities to deal with in one's young children.
