Most of the time "3 little words" signifies someone saying "I love you" but really I could give up that phrase all together just in order to experience 3 different words that were spoken to me the other night.....We have mentioned Brady is a little bit delayed in the speech arena, but he is making great strides lately and it is so fun to watch him finally put everything he has "known" all along to a verbal form of communication! He has been combining two words for a few weeks now and getting the hang of it more and more every day. The other day we were at Brooke's soccer game and when it was over Chris and I had the quick non verbal agreement (because really after 10 years do you even need to speak anymore?) of "yep its 6:30 where are we going out to eat?" So both kids hopped in Chris' car I hopped into mine and off to the restaurant we go......we literally drive not even 3 miles - we meet in the parking lot, I get out to help Chris get Brady out of his seat I open the door and he looks at me and just says.......
"MOM, MISSED YOU."
I was so excited and proud for the words and the advancement, albeit a little embarrassed that he only drove for 3 miles without me and acted like I just flew back from a hiatus in a foreign country. I just gave a look to Chris and had another non verbal conversation with him and it went something like this "Yes Brady, with those three words, you did just purchase a free pass to get whatever you want from you mother, forever"
We are proud of you little man!
