... it's my "baby's" b-day! He's 9 yrs. old today. I can't believe how much he has grown and changed. It makes me thankful for all that's he's been given. I mean, this morning he hopped out of bed saying "It my birf-day, Momm! I 9 yeaws old today!" This coming from the lad they once told me many never speak! So, I'd like to use this day as a reminder for all, early intervention is crucial! If you have questions about your childs development, don't delay, ask now! (Preaching to the choir I know...) And best of all, remember, just because they can't talk, or won't talk, or just plain don't really like talking, doesn't mean they have nothing to say!
