"Daddy's going to put batteries in your toy Gabe.""What are you doing?" GABE asked.
"I hear an airplane!" GABE said.
While putting Aquaphor on Gabe's face before bed, due to an outbreak of excema, I heard the following...
"In bed Mommy."
"Read Thomas!"
"Get in bed"
"OK, all done," I say. "Let's get in bed."
"In bed, read Thomas!"
Leaving the room after getting the low battery window from my lap top I hear...
"Where are you going Mommy?"
Gabe was bouncing on SD's lap pretty agressively, so SD pretended to cry and we hear....
"Daddy, you OK? You need a hug?"
"(Boo), have a pig?" Gabe asked when wanting to play with one of her plastic pig figures.
"Daddy, excuse me, I have Poo Poo." And he did!!!!
Incredible. What's happening? Why is all this glorious and spectacular language happening now? Is it the weather? Age? All the practice and therapy?
All I can say is........ WHO CARES!!!!!...... I LOVE IT!!!!!
For those of you new to this blog, Gabe was completely nonverbal, noncommunicative just over a year ago. There wasn't some miracle cure, just hard work, a great speech therapist, and many ABA therapists that are wonderful. Amazing....
HOORAY for GABE!
I keep thinking he must feel like shouting..."They finally GET what I am saying!"
We do. We really do :o)
