Texting vs. Talking

Clint and I have thought really hard on if it's better to teach Alivia to talk or just to text. We feel like we should keep her up with the "new" way of communication, but are not sure. So we have had many sleepless nights decided that texting is the way to go.

We made a pro/con list and this is what we came up with.
Pro:
she looks adorable
it helps her hand/finger coordination
she can express herself from anywhere in the house
(I mean come on when she wakes up she just text to us "I am up" and we never hear yelling)
Con:
we will never hear her beautiful voice
she might fall behind in school someday
this is a crazy idea
Well I guess we will forget the texting for now and continue on her verbal skills. Alivia is already saying so many things right now and coping everything. Let's hope by the time she is old enough there is no such thing is texting..... She is pretty darn cute trying though, isn't she
