Parker is a pretty proficient communicator these days and can pretty much say whatever he wants and needs too. Once in awhile he still signs and especially now with Lillie signing he uses it a lot which is fine since they have their own language going on. His biggest "speech issue" is his "S" at the beginning of words. He either replaces it with "W" or "B" most of the time. As you can imagine this has resulted in some very funny words such as:
WOCKS= socks
WING WONGS= Sing songs
This morning though might have been the funniest of them all.
Parker's latest obsession is the story of David and Goliath. We own every version from the Children's Bible to Veggie Tales to the yellow and musty1959 cartoon version we found in the bible archive of our public library. We read it, watch it, and now act it out at least 20 times a day. So this morning Trev tells Parker he'll be Goliath and Parker can be David (since David was a boy and the hero of the story). Parker tells him "Wait, wait Dad, I need to get you a beer." ((A WHAT?!?!))
They start acting it out and Parker yells in his bravest voice when Goliath laughs at him, "You come to me with a sword and beer, but I come to you in the name of the Looorrrrdddd."
Trev and I burst out laughing. Of course Parker thought he was being funny and wanted to do it again and again and of course everytime Trev and I laughed harder.
