Have you been wondering? I'm sure you have. People have been asking. Over and over. Mostly, "What did she say?"
So ... C4 has started speech therapy. Apparently she was unintelligible. Well, not completely. 25% intelligible (in an unknown context) !!
This speech issue has been problematic for C4 and her particular favorite subject (dogs). For two weeks C4 was saying Tchi-yow-yah ... and I couldn't understand that she was saying chihuahua. So, that is a main focus, to get those sounds. She started with F & V last week, and today she got S & Z homework. I'm hoping we'll go for the W's soon.
The therapist thinks C4 is doing great, and has no physical problems, or hearing problems ... Let me brag and say the therapist thinks C4 is very intelligent, and because things come so easy to her when it takes work ... she balks.
So, we are biting our lips to say our Fs & Vs, closing our teeth to say our Ss and Zs. We get practice sheets to do 2-3 times a day and I can already hear C4 improving with her F words.
We've told C4 when she can say Chihuahua we can go see Beverly Hills Chihuahua ... So, best of luck to us!
