The A says aaah...


Those of you close to me know I have been somewhat concerned over Evelyn's speech...or lack thereof. She says Dora and Diego - and actually speaks more Spanish words than English. She had shown no signs of knowing letters or basic words, like car. Then all of a sudden this week, she was playing with our fridge Leap Frog Letters Game and knew EVERY letter and their sound. She would point to one and say "S. Eesssss." So I would start pointing out letters on anything and she would say what it was! I was so happy. And she is starting to say normal words too, like ball and tree. I guess I feel a little better now - although I swear she is deaf because she NEVER listens to me...but my doctor said she just has "selective listening" towards me!
