The Upside

There is an upside to having a kid with a speech delay. Thursday all 3 of us were at Publix grocry shopping. A thin, wrinkly old lady pushed her cart past us and said hi to Gavin. She had stringy hair pulled back in a pony tail and was a little hunched over too. Gavin pointed at her and said "MOMBIES!" a few times. He can't pronounce a "Z." I just played dumb and calmly said to him, "yah, she looks like a mommy doesn't she?" while the lady was in earshot.
