Everyday my sister texts or calls me to keep me posted on what my 3 nephews and niece have been up to… even times when my sister gets so upset, we usually burst out laughing…  most especially things that my 2 1/2 year old niece says and does… maliha — is just — too — much! probably too smart for her age… she’s basically 2 1/2 going on 18! Independent and ready to move out!

I don’t know if it’s because she’s the youngest sibling of 4 like myself… or because she’s the only little girl I can spoil… but I just can’t get enough of my niece! And can’t get enough of her antics! I thought I’d share some of the recent things she’s said and done — that makes you wonder if she truly is a teenager stuck in a 2 1/2 year old’s body… I call these — “Maliha-isms”… I’m sure this is only the beginning…

1) On the floor, Maliha found some old candy — probably from a Pez dispenser… as she puts it in her mouth, her 5 year old brother screams “don’t eat that, it’s old!”… she replies,”but it makes me happy!” — and then proceeded to eat the candy…

2) Upon waking up, Maliha sniffs her mama… and says, “what’s that smell?”…
Mama: “What smell?”
Maliha: “You!”
Mama responds defensively: “What’s wrong with my smell?”
Maliha: “Gwoss”
and this is after my sister showered LOL

3) Maliha grabs the iPad… hands it to her Mama and asked her to check her email… I don’t think my sister knew until that moment that she was little girl’s secretary…

4) Mama: “Maliha! Come here please!”
Maliha: “No, not Maliha. It’s pwincess. It’s pwetend, Mama.”

Here’s my princess!Oh yea, this princess likes to wrestle…
She’s a tough princess 😉
