I'm home alone with DS as DH is on night shifts this week. Before he went to bed, my DS pointed at nothing and said "Dada Dada' over and over. He calls any man he sees Dada, but I said that Dada was at work etc. Then he points again and says 'Hat! Hat!'

Immediately the hairs on the back of my neck stood up. My own Dad passed away over 20 years ago and he always wore a hat, whenever I think of him he's wearing his akubra hat. It's coming up to his anniversary which is also my son's birthday. We've had a few funny things go on since DS was born but not for at leat 6 months.

He kept doing funny faces towards the same area as I was zipping him into his bag. So needless to say I now have all the lights on!
