My Little Brit

Maddie has taken to calling Eli's name with a bit of an accent. It's kind of British in nature, but I have no idea why that would be. It started about a week ago, and I think it began when she learned how to fully use the "L" in his name. Most days she calls him "E-I". But suddenly she added the "L" in the middle. At the same time, she tossed in there a little international flair. Now Eli is known as "E-Loy". I find myself getting creative with questions I ask her, just so I can elicit her repetition of his name. How funny that they both go through accent phases: Eli pretended to be a Jersey transplant when he was just a little older than her.
