Year of the Dogs ...

These days, Morgan enjoys making a kind of speech which is mostly made up of one word mainly - "gow .. gow ... gow ... gow ... gow". I suppose he could be already speaking Chinese or Cantonese because 狗 means 'dog' whereas 'dog' in Welsh is 'ci' (pronounced as 'key'). Morgan has always been fond of dogs but the fact that we don't have pets meant that he is still wary of them when they are nearby,especially big and loud ones. However the dog is probably the first animal he recognised because we have 2 springer-spaniels living next-door whom we see and hear quite alot. Funnily enough, a friend brought some animal toys round - an elephant, a bumble bee, a dog and a teddy bear - for Morgan at 7 months old. He didn't seem to show any response for the animals but his face definitely lit up when he saw the toy dog!


Then again, Morgan IS afterall born in the Year of the Dog (2006), like my father (1946) and my 'Bat Leong' (dad's sister-in-law). Forgot to mention - cousin
David aka Yang yang
is also born in the Year of the Dog!!
