Eri-eri-alaka

"Eri-eri-erika, Eri-eri-alaka," called the big sister Maita.  And so that was how our second daughter got her names.  Maita used so many variations of Erika's name that most of them just stuck.  Erika, Kala, Alaka - these are among the most commonly used names that we call the baby in our family.

I also sometimes call her my little princess.  But she was, literally, a little witch last night.  She kept me up till about midnight before she went to sleep.  She was so in love with her witch costume that she took her pajamas off to change to her normal clothes.  I then had to help her put on the witch costume which she wore to bed.  So she woke up this morning as my little witch!
