I know it is my job as a parent to
teach my child, and to 'correct' her when she is doing something
wrong.
However, sometimes I find it very hard
to do that; especially when it comes to the way she speaks.
My little one is getting older now, and
she is losing the last vestiges of her 'baby talk', so I am finding
it more and more difficult to correct her pronunciation of certain
words (I do try to correct grammar, though that might actually do
more harm than good).
I just REALLY miss hearing her say
lellow (instead of yellow).
We are trying to help her communicate
better with words so that other adults have a chance of understanding
her, and are actively trying to remove the 'likes and okays' from her
sentences to try to avoid the “like okay mom, like okay, you are so
like not cool...”
However, I just cannot let go of her
cute little 'words'. It feels almost like I am saying goodbye to my
baby, and I am not sure if I am ready to say hello to my little big
girl yet.
So, the only thing I have left these
days are my “isgusting's” (instead of disgusting), and I plan to
protect them as long as I can. And, I do not care who it 'isgusts'.
