Re: My daughter's progress

[Guest guest]

Oh brag away thats wonderful! I know there are days

when something happens and I have to run to my

computer to tell my online mom friends because all my

real life mommmy friends have NT children and I don't

know but to me it just seems to not be as big of a

deal to them you know?

Sorry I don't want to sound like a downer and rain on

Tiff's day that really is so cool that is is

understanding speech more and more I hope to be able

to report the same thing from Sonja someday soon, I

can't wait for the day when she say spoon instead of

dragging me around the kitchen and stopping and

staring at the drawer until I figure it out LOL
