The Kid Dictionary

The grand twins have always communicated in their own language.  Since they were tiny babies sitting in the bumbo chairs giggling and jabbering away at each other.  It has been fascinating to watch over the years.  Now that they are 3 and speaking in not only sentences but paragraphs and with emphasis and emotion they [...]
