Our Graduate!


Our little guy graduated Speech on Wed...they said it was one of the quickest turn arounds they have ever seen...a month in...and he's out...We love chatting with him more! Language just clicked for him! YAY!!! All he needed really was a little more time...it's so hard as a parent...so much of it is a balancing act...trying to be proactive and trying to be patient (key word: trying)...But I love as a teacher and as a mom all these great resources that are offered before age 3 to get kids the help they need before they get to school...and that the help is FREE! He is going to miss his teacher...he would get excited to see her each week...and she had a lot of great tips to get him talking more..

We love having real conversations with him now...His vocab has really exploded! I love to hear him talk! He loves "super-hew-whoahs"...(super heroes) and Mike is so excited to have a little one excited about what he loved as a kid! We love our little guy! Now we really can't get a word in edge wise with 2 "Chatty Pattys"...it is funny to watch things change around here as he gives his opinion more and more...he was a go with the flow kinda brother...now he will let big sis know when he would rather do "B" when she suggests "A"...it's good for both of them! And we are seeing his humor come out more too...On Mother's Day I said, "How old are you Carter?" and he said, "I 3!" with a huge grin and a chuckle..."No you aren't!" I said, "You are 2!" Then he said, "No I 4!!!!" I think we have a little jokester on our hands! :)
