When I was a little girl I was a chatterbox. My parents said I was only quiet when asleep or eating. My younger brother was the complete opposite, he didn't speak at all. My worried parents took him to a speech therapist who after some monitoring declared there was nothing wrong with his speech, he simply didn't feel the need to talk as his big sister did it all for him... Little E seems to have inherited my genes. She is officially a chatterbox. I can't understand half of what she is saying but she gets lost in deep conversations with me, gesticulating madly as she tells me about her day at nursery (which usually involves someone biting someone and eating three sandwiches), the latest adventure of a wolf with big teeth or acting out what Bump is up to inside my tummy. All she needs from me is the odd nod of encouragement and she's off into another rant of which I can make out about the last three words. I love it. Her big personality has a huge voice now and as she screws up her nose whilst telling me how she doesn't like the look of that boy in the queue because his shoes are red, I have images of sitting in a Starbucks 20 years from now listening to her rant about the latest boyfriend/best-friend/job and remembering these ordinary days when she found her voice.

Beautiful little girl, beautiful post! Xx 16/2/2014 09:50:33 am
You and your brother sound exactly like my older two! My son is seeing a speech and language therapist, but I'm confident he knows exactly what is going on but chooses not to speak and my daughter is a chatterbox! Ha! This could be taken right out of my book! My girl is the biggest chatterbox too. She's in year two now, and makes up for all the time she's not allowed to chat at school in the mornings and evenings. I'm sure there will be many tales in our future of friends, boyfriends and bosses. 16/2/2014 11:14:53 am
That's a great photo! I have a few chatter boxes and it's hard to hear them when they all start talking at once! #TheOrdinaryMoments 16/2/2014 12:53:26 pm
What a great photo, I can almost hear her nattering away! My little boy can still only say a few real words, but he 'talks' all the time and I love listening to him babble and try to commicate with me. Their little personalities come out so much more when they start to talk. 16/2/2014 02:04:36 pm
Oh this is such a lovely post. I often imagine sitting with my girls in years to come and chatting about life. It's quite strange to imagine but I hope we will be the best of friends. My daughter is a chatterbox too, she doesn't ever stop talking! x 16/2/2014 03:10:59 pm
This is SO like my Boo! She does not shut up! Even when we put her to bed we can hear her gabbing on and on about the day's events, singing songs, playing peek-a-boo with her "cute little baby duvet"! It's so much fun to have a chatterbox isn't it? They come out with the funniest things! X

Thank you for your lovely comments. So many little chatterboxes out there! I wonder if Bump will be a chatterbox like his/her big sister or a mute like my brother! Only time will tell! Thank you all for stopping by xx 17/2/2014 02:33:31 am
