The Speech Impediment

As with many three year olds, not all consonant sounds come out as intended.
One that we constantly notice that Cassee has trouble saying is the F sound. Words like Father comes out 'Hodder', and funny (which she says a lot) comes out 'hunny'.
Today we ate a plum for lunch. When Cassee said the word plum, it came out fum or flum. I laughed. Here comes the F sound on the wrong word.
She says H sounds for the F's, and F sounds for the P's.
This is going to take some work!!

  1. that's funny. sam's F's sound like W's, so we get things like, my weet hurt or bwess the wood, that wunny. maybe i'll have to see how he says plum, maybe he can say the F!
