Today when Betsy pronounced her brother's name, she very clearly said "Elliot." I was so shocked, I asked her to repeat it a few more times. Each time she very clearly said "Elliot."
Normally correctly pronouncing another person's name is a good thing, but I'm really sad. It means she's growing up. She used to pronouce his name "Ahh-Yacht" (say it fast and you'll understand what I mean). And I loved that she said it that way - it was a sign of her babyhood.
Better enunciation is just another sign that my babies are getting bigger, learning more and inching closer to becoming teenagers (and wanting NOTHING to do with me).
*sigh*
