She couldn't say lunch, called it, "Hunch."
Dan was five, and he and I thought it was funny. We tried to help her practice: "Heidi say la-la-la-lunch."
She'd lift her chin up and down, carefully pronouncing, "La-la-la-Hunch." Over and over we did this, and I don't think she ever got it.
Oh my goodness.
Here's a pic of them catching frogs back in the day, another July a lifetime ago.
dan's in the blue, heidi's the pink one, and a cousin in the middle
Today we've got this going on at la-la-la-Hunch:
What do you think? Maybe Grandma should sew a BOY bib for this child? All we have these days are girl ones. It's a little silly, but he puts up with us. love, Val
Funny, my aunt has a similar story about her daughter - my cousin - unable to say "light". La-la-la-yight. :) I have a few videos of the kids when they were small and I absolutely love the "dutchy" stuff they said.
