This week Vincent's vocabulary has really taken off. He went from a few words when prompted, to picking up 3-4 new words a day. He's even using the words in the right context. The other night at dinner, Vince made the sign for more and said "more" (envision the scene from "Oliver" where the poor orphaned boy approaches the head-master and says "more please") That's how it sounded. And then he said "Please?" WHAT!! Where those polite words, UNPROMPTED, coming out of MY CHILD'S mouth???? I was so overwhelmed with pride at that moment. What will be the next wonderful words out of his mouth? Thank you? Yes Ma'am?
NO! That was the next word out of his mouth for the next 3 hours as we tried to finish dinner, put away toys, take a bath, and go to bed. No, No, NO!! He knew what he wanted, and it was not what we wanted him to be doing.
I'm so happy he's talking and it's fun to watch him learn a new word and get excited about it. I just hope he learns to say yes soon too!
