Seven random things: Maïa

1) She is the youngest—but only the second smallest—kid in her class.

2) Her obsession with horses is at epic heights: she loves anything resembling, related to, or containing the name horse. Horses, unicorns, pegasus, zebras, sea horses, horse flies... I think she would love hippopotamuses if I told her that "hippo" means horse.

3) Maïa is way fancier than her mom has ever been. Dresses, necklaces, anything with embroidery or flowers or butterflies.

4) She could sing in tune at the age of 18 months.

5) She has been to Egypt, Cuba, and three different provinces in Canada.

6) She draws about 5 to 10 pictures per day.

7) Is currently obsessed with reading words: I caught her yesterday reading my body butter container.

Hippo may not mean horse but in German a hippo is "Nilpferd" which literally translates to horse of the Nile. If memory serves me correct, the arabic word for hippo also is something like that although I can't remember for sure.

So yay, now Maia can love hippos too. *Grin*
