Soo one of my great mysteries was solved recently.
It was really hard to understand some of the words that Safiya had been uttering mostly because I was not sure which language she was speaking!!
Let me preface this by saying that Safiya absolutely LOVES Dora the Explorer (the spanish speaking cartoon that many little girls love).
Well the mystery was solved when I realized that they were spanish words! Crazy stuff. Why is my child speaking Spanish?
Anyway, dear Safiya also loves to sing the Dora theme song and has Dora pajamas and Dora underwear, a Dora toothbrush and Dora sunglasses, you name it. She really loves her some Dora. She also is a big Elmo fan, but that is a topic for another day.
Well she went to the post office with Musa and there was a little Mexican looking girl with a pink tshirt and shorts and a hairdo just like Dora!!! Guess what? Safiya started pulling her Dad's hand in her direction and saying "Dora, Dora" and started singing the Dora song!! Talk about embarassing. Safiya thought her favourite TV character was live in front of her and her Daddy would not let her talk to Dora. Too funny.
Reminds me of a story that my parents told me. When I was a little girl I saw a white man with long brown hair and I thought he was Jesus!! jeesh.
Kids. There is never a dull moment is there? haha.
