So many of you saw my post about my beautiful 3 ¾ year old, and his amazing progress away from being non-verbal. That was 1 week ago. Just over 1 WEEK AGO he had 4 words in his vocabulary. A week ago he doubled that to 8. In the past week, he has:
* Said 'Nana', loud and clear, in front of his nana.
* Counted verbally to 10, including 0.
* Recited the entire alphabet (as best as his pronunciation allows, W is doo-de-doo cause he can't say it yet)
* Can say yellow, blue and pink, and attempts lots of other colours (orange is ooh ah and yellow is yoyo)
* Tries verbally to say almost every word we say to him.
* With no prompting or encouragement, looked at a turtle picture and said turtle.
Whatever the hell has clicked in his head, OH MY GOD it's amazing. I was actually anticipating that he might never say he loves me. He can't yet, but he's trying.
Oh AND today he got his first ever invitation to a birthday party from nursery! Granted I think she's invited everyone in the preschool room, but we never expected him to get ANY invites at all! You better believe we're going!![Red heart :heart: ❤️](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/2764.png)
