So, yesterday morning Ryan was helping Austin say family prayer before the kids left for school. Austin repeated after Ryan, i.e. "Heavenly Father," "Father," "Please bless Daddy." "Daddy." "Please bless Dallin." "Dallin." "Please bless Cameron." "..." Nothing. You know why? Because Austin can't say Cameron's name and doesn't even try. He learned "helicopter" last Saturday, he can say "pacifier, blue, see ya, sure, and Waluigi" and of course everyone else's name in the family including "Jacque". But for some reason the kid just can't manage "Cameron". He has conversations with Eden by yelling at her down the stairs. He tells me what he wants to eat like "cheese stick" and is very clear about what he likes and doesn't like. He will tell you "not yet" if he's not ready and like I said he started saying "sure" which just cracks me up. We've tried getting him to say Cam or ammy or anything and he still doesn't try. Mum's the word when it comes to her. Of course he loves her and smothers her with hugs and kisses when she gets home from school but as far as I know he's decided she's nameless. Go figure.
I will definitely celebrate the day he finally says her name and you'll be the first to hear about it, after Cameron of course.
