Today is Sophia’s appointment for an evaluation on her lack of speech, finally. I reminded Kurt last night and he said to her, “When I get home tomorrow I expect you to be talking.” Imitating how she should sound he told her what he expected to hear. In a stuffy British accent he said, “Oh daddy, I expect your day was exceptional.”
You know how in cartoons if the character is baffled by the actions of another you’ll hear a tinny clinking sound and the character will blink several times. I swear Sophia did that. I think I even heard the blinking sound. “Are you going to say that when I get home tomorrow?” He asked her. “No” she said without any delay.

Chloe had hers right before I went back to work in September. Chloe’s only word then was no. Sophia is the age now Chloe was then. Fear not. In two months time I predict your child will also be saying such gems like shit and fuck…Just like Chloe! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, for a while thank you was “dick”. Really. And it was “dick” this and “dick” that on the day of her evaluation. Fun times! Thank god now she can say “tank you”. Now her word for truck is “suck” Just imagine if she could say truck then. It would have been “suck dick”. Wait. Where’s Sophia? I demand you let me teach her to talk. LOL

LOL. Susan! You sound like I did before I learned to curb my tongue. Wait, I learned that?
Erica, I can hear the blinking clear as day. Good for her for saying “no.”
Major smooches to you for stopping to read Suzie’s House. Thanks.
