When Christian was a little younger than Jackson is now, he couldn’t say his L’s or his TH’s. It was adorable. Everyone would try to help him, but secretly, I loved it and hoped he talked like that forever. Speech therapy seemed inevitable. When he would practice saying lollipop, at first, he’d get the L sound just fine. L — l — l — wowwipop. It was beyond cute. Right before it was time to get checked for speech, he magically started saying his L’s and TH’s. Although I know it is best, and I really am happy his speech improved, I can’t help miss wowwipops and wittle nuffin’s. .jpg "20080607_2926")
Jackson can say his L’s, but he has his own mountain to climb with his speech. He’ll get it soon. In his words, “Almost, not twite.”
