OK, have to have a mommy brag on my little guy for a moment.Speech is totally not Patrick's strong area~he has only a few words that are understandable that he uses all the time~dont hear a lot of new words coming out.
Well, this morning as I was getting Nora into her car seat to take the 3 older boys to school Patrick was standing at the doorway saying something to me. When I was done with Nora I turned to him and he said, clear as a bell, "Too big." He was telling me the hat I had given him was too big~which it was. I was so excited I made him tell his brothers and dad what was wrong with his hat and each time he said "too big", clear enough to completely understand what he was saying.
I had tears in my eyes I was so proud of him! We work so hard on speech and I was starting to think it would never pay off but these two little words have let me know not to back off~that he is learning and wants to talk and will improve.
Thanks for letting me share my little story!
