Well ladies and gentlemen, once again your words of wisdom have proved correct. Just want to fill you in on the adventures of The Brookster 
You said teach her sign. I (and Signing Time) did and she is well over 200 words now. You said she will be verbal after she walks, and guess what. We have some words. We have football (she will point to her foot and scream BALLLLL, we have Pooh, as in Pooh bear, she says words when she wants to play flashcards, we have blue and wellow which are all verbal and clear as day ;D She has learned alot of colors and can point them out and sign them. We have learned alot of animal sounds. She can do cow, sheep, goat, owl, pig, cat, snake, dog and blows kisses for fish 
She is just amazing me so much lately, I am so proud. Oh and get this. After a long time of her being scared of the potty, she went pee pee in the potty last night. Can we say a bunch of clapping fools around here. Mary thought we'd lost our marbles One more thing. She will start school in January. A whole year early. I'm a bit nervous. It's a secret so don't tell. We're being sneeky, her OT and I, and calling it a home visit I know she will be so young but I have to give it a try. If she doesn't like it we will wait but I have to try. This is why i've been so persistant in teaching her colors, animal sounds and numbers. Oh yea she can count to three, skips four and then comes 5. It's cute. Ok thats enuf rambling Just wanted to say Thanks and offer hope to everyone. It will happen. I love you guys
