Gift of Gab

Is it possible that I have passed on to my son this gift of gab?

Surely my husband and I talk to Shaughn every day but Shaughn is definitely more like me. I have a tendency to just talk and talk with people I get along with, even if its meeting with them for the first time. My son will just be sitting there, will make eye contact with you and start yapping away. Its non-stop and he uses his hands a lot for what seems to be his punctuation. I do this. I don’t know why I do but I very much do these things with my hands that to me, I’m assuming, makes it feel as if my point is getting across more. Does that make any sense or am I just weird? Today while the three of uswere eating lunch, he took a bite of his food, chewed it up and swallowed then said “Mmmm!” and just continued in this dialogue. The mmm part was a delightful sound, like he enjoyed the food, and then the rest was just babbling as if he were describing to us what it tasted like and how good he was. Brent and I started to laugh because of how into it he was, and when he finished saying whatever he had to say he laughed with us then opened his mouth and said “ahh” for another piece. All you can do is agree with him, imagining what it is that he’s thinking about. Well, I’m hoping he was talking about it being delicious because if it was the opposite, he’s gonna be stuck with momma’s bad cooking for 17 more years!
