Talk, Talk

When Rob got home from work, Westley spent a good half hour telling him about his day. Two days ago, Westley was mixing a few "ba" and "ma" sounds in with his usual oohs. Now, it's full-on conversation-style babble.

"Baaeekishooooh."

"Really, dude?"

"Mababaleekish-spfffffft. Hee-ooh."

And so on. It's like listening to a message in code, where all the H's are swapped with F's, and the vowels are interchanged according to some complex numeric system. I'm pretty sure there's English in there somewhere, but I'd need a NASA supercomputer to decode it.

It's the greatest sound in the world.

I just love baby babble. It makes me smile even when I'm not so happy. And babies always seem so happy while babbling. It's a fun thing.
