this morning my 21month old DD was sitting on the couch while i was doing things around the house.. she said mummy sit and patted the couch so i went and sat down with her. she gave me a big cuddle and we watched tv for a few moments. then she said to me '''luff mummy" and patted me! awwwwwww! thats the first time she has said it and it was so special! i love my little girl!
