Rrrrrrrrrrrr!

Anne mentioned that Mary Grace had a surprise for me and what a surprise it was!

She started out trying to get Mary Grace to say some words by leading the witness, but that wasn't working (the witness is way too smart for that). Once Mary Grace left the room, I learned that Mary Grace learned to say her R's!

Now we've been trying to get her to say her R's for like two years. And while she's mastered some of them, the ones that come at the end of the words like car, bar, etc. Have been elusive.

Well, TODAY is the day that's learned it. She's tossing our the "car", star", and even "guitar" like it's no big deal! She is even acting like it's no big deal!

So I had to ask, how did you learn? Did mommy work with you? Did your teacher at school help you?

Her answer? And I am not making this up, and I had to ask twice to make sure I got it right...

"my foot taught me"

Wait, what?

"I learned to say my R's from my foot."

Hmmmmm. Ok, whatever, at least she's saying them now. Yay, no speech class!

Then tonight, Anne was trying to get Mary Grace to tell me the temperature (twenty FOUR degrees), and we asked her 2 or 3 times, until she finally responded "24 dude!!!"

LOL
