Evan is my special boy that has been struggling with everything from speech, social interaction and age appropriate behaviors. Well, in the last month, after starting music therapy with Maude Dammonn, a God send in our lives, Evan has made some huge progress in the last week.
Evan has increasingly been seeking me and Emma out for attention and interaction. He loves playing with Emma, loves music and mostly making noise.
Evan now has a good list of meaningful signs that have really only been using consistantly in the last few weeks:
- more
- eat
- milk
- help
- open
- music
- thank you
- please
- play
- all done
- go
- he waves "hello" backwards like a baby
The best part about these signs is that he tries to say them as he signs them. I am so proud of him and his progress. It is truly something to be thankful for. This Wednesday we go back to Shiner's Hospital because our pedetrician thinks that Evan's palate repair has ripped. I will let you know.
