Abstract
“Ms. K, Ms. K, looked what I got here.” Two bright shining eyes look up to me from the floor. There sits George,1 a little boy who usually does not talk much. In fact, he has been seeing the Speech and Language Pathologist to help with both language acquisition and articulation. George is so excited he can hardly contain himself.
