On Wednesdays I get to watch two extra kids while their mommy gets to work, so Wednesdays are always an exciting day. It is definitely Timmy's favorite day of the week because he gets to play with Audrey and Sam(And he has actually learned how to say their names now!). It is so much fun to see them all play together. In the class I am taking for Timmy's speech we have learned about all the different stages of communication and different strategies to encourage communication and so on... Well its neat because all 4 kids are in a different stage. Allanna is a discoverer, Sam is a Communicator, Timmy is a first words user, and Audrey is a very advanced combiner. So its really neat to see them all developing so fast and getting into the next stages and trying to communicate with each other! Now that Timmy has more words he is starting to boss the other kids around so all day today he would say "Audrey run" or "Sam sit." Even though its not cute to be bossy its so great to see him become a sociable communicator. And Audrey said such a cute thing today, she saw a picture of an ant and she said that ants hurt. So I asked her (to see if she would remember are battle of the ants at millerton) if she got bit by ant when we went camping... and she said no because God protected me. How amazing is that coming from a 3 year old? I wish we could all think so simply. It was a good reminder that God is protecting us all the time even from the little things!
We also had Timmys videotaping for speech yesterday, which is almost like a test to see if I am using what I am learning while I play with him. The session went so good! The teacher was really excited to see how much he has progressed in the last month! She also gave us some great tips to help him put two words together. So it seems like this class and those fish oils are working great!
I have also tried to work out the last 2 days and now I am crazy sore! But my sisters wedding is in like 24 days so I have to keep it up!
