Back on Track!!!!

Reece has regained his "ooo"!!!! I am so excited! And even more exciting is that we finished his fifth round of AC Chelation Tuesday night and on Wednesday he started clicking his tongue!!!! He has not been able to do this in over three years!!! It seems to be his "happy" sound now. I was afraid when he did it once that it was a fluke. But he is doing it at will now. He is getting those oral motor skills back that he will need to really talk. I am keeping a list of all the words he is saying and approximating to send back to school with him next month. I am already thrilled with how long the list is.

On Friday we went on a playdate with the girls. We were in the yard at the pool the entire time and I worried how he would be. He was great. He played in the water and let me take him for a ride on the raft. He watched his sister who was sitting on the hot tub side of the pool and kicking her feet. He then went over and sat across from her, laughed and kicked his feet too. He was imitating and playing with her on his own--no prompting!!! Hope is a wonderful thing to have again!!!
