That's History

Wyatt had his three year evaluation for speech today (even though he will not be three until October) to see if he qualified for speech after he turned three. He has been seeing a speech therapist since he was 17 months old! When he was 17 months old he didn't make many sounds...not much babbling, cooing, and didn't imitate sounds. We were a little concerned. When he was evaluated at 17 months the evaluators determined that his language comprehension was at a 34 month level, while his verbal language was at an 8 month level. There was a HUGE gap in what he understood and what he could communicate. Today at 2 years 10 months, he has a vocabulary of a 2 year 10 month old and the articulation of a 3 year 4 month old! We have come a long way baby Wyatt! I am sad to see his speech therapy coming to an end because Wyatt LOVES his speech therapist Margo, but I am happy that he will be "graduating" before he will ever remember that he needed speech therapy. What a milestone!
