Ever since Eric was 6 months old we started to teach him the word “Momma”. Other sounds like “baba” came naturally, he was babbling them all day long but every time we asked him “say Momma” he would move his lips as if repeating but made no sound.
Yesterday my baby woke up hungry at night and I tried to settle him without feeding. He started crying and saying “Momma, Momma” - and I couldn’t help laughing. It was just like in that story about a spy who revealed his true identity in his sleep by speaking his native language.
