Brentisms.

When Brent was little he had a unique speech problem. He had a great vocabulary but the doctors said it was if he had learned to speak in Sweden. "Y" replaced "L" and "J". "Lucky" was "Yucky" and "Jimmy" was "Yimmy" - a nickname we still call him today. When Mike got to do something Brent wanted to do, he would say "Mike is so yucky!" Mike didn't like the sound of that and it usually ended up in an argument. He also had a different way of expressing things. Brent got sick once and threw up. He told me he "overflowed", which really makes sense. Instead of a "tickle" in his throat, he said he had a "giggle" in his throat. That's a happy thought. This is a picture of Brent taken in Sept. 1977 when he was 4, almost 5. Ben looks a lot like this now - just a different hair style.
