When we were adopting/waiting for MK, her speech was my biggest concern. Now that she has been home for 2 1/2 years and speaks fairly well, I do not worry so much. In fact, I find myself being entertained by some of her words. For example, we just finished lunch. I told the children if they finished all of their milk, we would go get an Icee to kickoff the holiday weekend. MK was not too interested in her milk but she drank it. Then, she came in and said, "Mom, I drank my milk and now my 'tomach is hurting." Love the imperfect sound of "tomach" coming from her mouth....she is, quite often, irresistibly cute!
