My name in baby speak.
There is something amazing about watching a little tiny child grow. My 17-month old nephew is just such a child. He attempts to repeat every word you say to him, no matter how crazy the word might be. (His parents are avoiding all curses and prophanities in their own language for just this reason.) Sometimes his attempts get pretty close to the real thing. Sometimes they're pretty far off. But he tries them anyways. Always. How would life be different if WE, as adults, weren't ever afraid to try a new word or two?

New words, yeah, or new anything! For me it's singing. Won't do it. Hate to feel foolish. But if I just did it, and didn't let myself feel foolish, then maybe my daughter would learn to not fear new things or things you can't do well... yet.
