One of Caleb’s therapists told me a long time ago that because he had already mastered identifying letters and knew their sounds as well it was possible he’d learn to read before he learned to speak. That sounded nuts to me at the time. However these days I’m not so sure this won’t be the case. Once again Caleb has challenged my perspective of what life is supposed to be like.
Good Morning,
You know I am cheering for Caleb to be writing this at 5:20 a.m. I am amazed and delighted at his growth from week to week. He’s doing so well. You are doing a wonderful job with him. His responses are great! I can’t wait to read your updates. Keep up the good work babygirl and hand on in there!!!
Mom
You are so wonderful with him baby that it’s no wonder he’s progressing so fast. I love you and all that you do for our family. There’s no one else that I’d rather do life with and share in raising my boys
So I guess that Word from the Lord is coming to pass but then it has too. His Word doesn’t return void. PRAISE THE LORD. And I agree with your hubby…you are an awesome mother. You need to give yourself more credit!!
Genius! But he comes by it honestly.
He IS Amazing! And so is his momma
That’s awesome and you are such a great mom! I loved it!
Yay! He’s come so far!
He is so much fun…I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to work with not only him, but you with and Dad. I look foward to many more amazing experiences in the upcoming year!
OK So I read the blog awhile ago from my phone but was just able to make it to the cpu to see the video. WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW! As I was watching I just kept thinking how in love I am with that little voice. It has been a long time coming. But way to go “Mother Warrior”!!! All your work…and praying…and tears…etc. have not been in vain. He was taking it all in all this time. Caleb just needed the right time to let it all out and WOW us all. The teacher in me won’t even fuss at you for writing in all caps!
BTW what was that last shape supposed to be…a banana?!?
wow! I can’t put into words accurately what this video and some of the things I’ve read in your blog have done for me. It is truely a blessing and the encouragement I needed to move foward with understanding and processing the possibility of Nyjah being diagnosed with ASD. Love you guys and by the way I think you both are truely amazing parents.
