So far, I am nothing but pleased with the school year. The boys and I are quite happy with how things are going - they are learning, having fun, and making friends.
I only have one complaint so far, and while it isn't the school's fault, I'm not really sure who specifically to blame it on, so I just say, "he picked it up at school." Mitchell, who is normally a very clear annunciator and only has a few words he routinely pronounces incorrectly, has picked up a lisp! Suddenly, he has replaced his "s" sounds with "sh" sounds. I will finish my entry in Mitchell's new language.
At firsht, I jusht tried to ignore thish new development. After all, it'sh not like he doeshn't know how to shay hish "sh's" and needsh to be taught. I figured it wash shomething one of hish friendsh wash doing and he wash jusht trying it out. Well, it hash been a week or sho now and it ish shtarting to get on my nervesh. Sho now, not only ish he talking like thish, but I correct him every time he doesh it, making it doubly annoying for ush all! Hopefully, thish ish going to be a very short-lived experiment of hish. I may jusht end up doing it myshelf if he doeshn't quit shoon!
Welcome to my world!
