Gween Gwapes

When I was little, I had a hard time pronouncing "Rs" correctly. They always came out as "Ws". I think I read that this is a fairly common with young girls. Anyhow, I remember being pulled out of my second grade class once a week for my speech therapy lessons. I don't think I really understood what the problem was at the time, but I do know that it eventually corrected itself. (Unless I still have a speech impediment that none of you have told me about!)

One phrase that I remember having a problem with was "Green Grapes". See, I love green grapes. I'm eating a bunch right now (they have really good quality green grapes at Costco right now!).

When I was little, I used to run around asking my parents for "Gween Gwapes". I know it cracked them up at the time.
