Or so they say.

My wee boy has started to speak! Well, let’s call it “babbling” for now, but I like to refer to it as speech! His first sound...get ready, “MAAA MAAA!!” He says it with such glee! And you know, I have told a few folks and they all have said the same thing, “Ma never comes out first!” Did I teach my little man to say “mommy?” Conceivably. Conceivably not. But, whatever or whomever he is referring to; this little first word melts my heart nonetheless.

He’s got “BA” down pat as well. In Elliot’s world, what, really, is of the essence? Me, of course, and the dearly loved bottle.
