There is this one scene in the cartoon intro where there is this mummy that gives Johnny the "slow chase" (mummies don't run so well...) and so for a year or so, when my daughter would see that scene that is shown at the beginning of all their cartoons, she would do this little dance that emulated what the mummy was doing to johnny, complete with the outstretched arms. So I would laugh and call it her special "mummy dance" and then she would get all giggly/wiggly, like little girls can do, and do her "mummy dance" for me.
....until for some reason she got it in her head that doing the "Mummy dance" is for babies, so then she stopped.
You will have all kinds of little episodes like this you will cherish in your memory after she grows up.
in a few years, you will have your own list of little memories like this. And you will be the only one, save maybe your wife, that will savor these little memories. Cherish them, because they will belong to you!
