She speaks

This month, Lisa started to really talk.
It's not just words anymore.
Lisa has finally realised that speech is a viable communications medium.
It's useful for getting into tit-for-tat arguments with Bart.
And for dobbing in her little sister whenever Maggie hits her.
And for telling Daddy over the phone about the busy day she's had.
This week, she even began to comfortably talk to other grownups.
Though we're still waiting for her to tell us when she needs to use the toilet.
