Despite a year of speech therapy, the "k" sound (also known as the "cracking nut" sound) is still tough for Lizzy. She gets frustrated, says she hates the cracking nut, and refuses to say them. But she's smart... she can always find a way around saying the "k" sound:
Me, as I kissed Lizzy's feet: "Lizzy, I'm tired. I think it's bedtime."
Lizzy: "Um, please don't "t-iss" my "t-ean" feet."
Me: "Ok, I won't.. if you can say a cracking nut.. "kiss" and "clean".
Lizzy: "K-iss"
Me: "Ok, now 'clean'".
Lizzy, sniffing her feet: "Ew, my feet are stinky. Don't k-iss them!"
