We're having a speech miracle here!
Today my son said his name! TWICE!! !! Better? I said "I love you" to my daughter, and she said, "I love you mama". I then said "I love you" to my son, to which he replied "Iyuyioooo mama".
Where did THAT come from!!?
Also, in front of the TV while watching Baby Einstein, he repeated a couple of words!! ! REPEATED!! ! He has not done that with us at all. He still won't, he has to be sort of in a zone, if that makes sense.
I think he just doesn't want to talk. I think he can more than he lets on. Although, I do think he has some issues with his tongue and word formation, so I'm still keeping with the speech therapy plan.
During a due process event, I called the school districts bluff, when they wanted to put my son in a contained classroom. He loved it, and it was taken away from him, with me being told those children weren't his peers. One of the non-verbal boys began writing my son's name on a piece of paper, and passing it to his Mom. She was elated!
