First Words?

Dear Eva, 

Your mom swears you have said other stuff as your first words, but I am fairly certain your first words are "ba-bye," as you waved bye to me.  It was clear, and beautiful.  Dare I say, you will be closer to me than your mom, jajaja.  But don't tell her that, she will be all sensitive about it.  I can't wait until you start to talk back, I really can't.
