Roll It, Baby!

Something like 50% of the population can roll their tongues. It's genetic. I know that some of my siblings can do it but not all. I know my mother could not.

I cannot.

Both my kids can. And Dakota can.

Kelton discovered he could do it a couple months ago and Kaylen figured it out last weekend. Amazing.

So not fair. I want to be able to do it too.

Can you roll your tongue? What about your kids?

Isn't it weird that it's a genetic thing? I mean, come on, it's rolling the tongue. Anyways, yes I can, Matt can and David can. He did it a few weeks ago.

I can't. I agree - totally jealous. My Mom can do it.

My mom and Athena and I can all do it. Isn't it weird?

I didn't know that it's genetic. Hmm, interesting. I can do it. I asked Connor to try. He can't, but it's pretty funny to watch him try.

I cannot roll my tongue to save my life.

I can do it. My mother could too.

My sister, husband and son can not.

I'll have to get my daughter to try to see if she has the "tongue rolling gene". :o)

So, was it something we encouraged her with while visiting? :-) Glad to hear she is a curler Casey...makes all my silly faces worthwhile.
