Benjy’s first words!

Benjamin spoke out his first words a couple of days ago. In very clear Swahili language he said: “Father… father…”. Danny was so proud that Benjy’s first words were spoken of of him. The words in Swahili were: “Baa-baa… baa-baa…”. Apparently, Benjy has picked up on some sort of local dialect, because officially father is baba in Swahili. Our son is just so smart.

  1. Immensely wonderful. He justly displays a genuine linguistic talent of unseen nature. Benjamin’s swiftness in learning and sensitivity for the dialectic culture display sturdy roots and genetic sustainability in academia and social nobility. Well done indeed Benjamin.
