Last week Kate started calling me "Taai taai"--Chinese for "wife." That is what Andrew calls me all the time, and Kate has picked up on it. At first I thought she was saying "Daddy," but then I realized she was calling me wife. But she doesn't just call me wife, she YELLS it. When she hears Andrew call me "taai taai" it is usually when he is calling me from the office. So she must think the only way to say "taai taai" is to say it as loudly as you can. "HEY TAAI TAAI!!" is a phrase I am hearing way too often these days from all members of the family.
