But just knowing what it's called hasn't helped me so far in trying to eliminate it from Dylan's speech.
Yesterday we were sitting on the front porch when a spider crawled by, and Dylan said:
"Mommy, it's a 'pider!"
"No Dylan, it's not a 'pider, it's a spider. Say 'ssssss'".
[laughing and slowly shaking his head] "Moooommmmmy, 'piders don't say 'sssss'...... 'nakes do!"
Well, he's right...snakes do say 'ssss'.....at least he knows his animals sounds! Love that little stinker (or 'tinker, as Dylan would say) so much....
