A Few Good Words

It's easy to overlook the fact that Brendon is talking more, probably because compared to what would be "normal," he still talks very little.

However,  he can sing dozens of songs now,  and uses pieces of songs to say things,  because he really struggles to access the words he wants.   I've noticed in the past few days that he is answering me more and more.   It might be a simple "yes" or "okay," but it is an answer!

Today, when I stopped at a red light he started saying,  "go" and when I took too long to reach something he wanted he started saying,  "Awe, come on! " over and over.   Evidently,  I took too long chatting with my mom today too, because he said,  "Let's GO!" 

As you can tell,  he isn't a patient little guy.   He wants to be moving ALL THE TIME!  :)  I can tell he WANTS to talk now.   I used to wonder if that would ever happen.   I'm happy he's making progress,  no matter how slow it may be.   We are truly blessed.
