“Alicious! Mmmm!” (With a smile, often just after throwing the alicious food on the floor)
“Daddy Elmo I play drums.” (Followed by drumming. I am unsure about how to punctuate this. Is she telling Daddy and Elmo? Is she telling Elmo’s father, but she’s unsure of his name? I can’t fault her on that, since Dorothy the Goldfish thinks it’s “George,” but apparently he’s been identified elsewhere as “Louie.”)
“Super Mommy! Super Daddy!” (I’d like to thank Sesame Street and Super Grover for this one.)
“Want to see Zoe. Hi, Zoe!”(This girl does love her Sesame Street characters.)
“Bed!” (Often at completely implausible times, like 30 minutes after waking up.)
“Wow! A guitar!” (Sometimes it’s a violin, but to be technical, it’s a ukelele.)
“Shoe! Shoe! Shoe! Shoe! Shoe! Shoe!” (About shoes that are much too small.)
“Chug, chug, puff, puff, ding dong, ding dong.” (And here I thought “I think I can” was the most important phrase in The Little Engine That Could. Shows what I know!)
“Flower!” (Yelled angrily as we approach the house. Evidently she cannot wait to begin our evening Family Walk so that she can assault the neighbor’s garden and uproot their decor.)

that is great babe, don’t you love when they start communicating and expressing their emotions. Son had speech issues, so now that he communicates better, I am in awe of each progress he makes.
We can tell that Baguette is not as verbally expressive as her peers at school, so we’re starting to explore options. How did you address your son’s speech issues?
