Squad, I hear Freeman!

Behold the power of words! Yes indeedy, my son has discovered the oh-so human instinct to make sounds in a desperate bid to communicate.. with his hand.

Introducing words such as "goo", "ga" and my all-time favourite, "doo" he has mastered the art of linguistics and even become decidedly expert with it having conducted a half-hour conversation in his cot this morning.

I don't remember there being anyone else in the room mind you and unless that someone was able to climb the outside of the building (three storeys worth) then it's obvious my son was babbling away to none other than Lady Luck herself. Aye, they were probably scheming away on how best to screw me. That being said, I thought he would be lucky for me since I'm naturally unlucky - it's weird logic but I can kinda make it work. However, he's bearing the brunt of the blame for his mother's run of bad luck what with him carrying my name and bad luck being in the genes :p

But anyway, I love hearing his babble - it's hilarious and cute all at the same time.
