Jade, the talker.

Jade is still pretty far behind on her language. She still prefers to use one, two, or three-word sentences and simple phrases that she hears other people use, but we are seeing progress.

She loves to babble and she will often repeat the same thing over and over and over again. In spite of the language challenges (darned seizures that have held her back!), she can be quite effective in her communications.

Here are a few pictures of Jade trying on my rubber boots. I have tried to reproduce her speaking style as accurately as possible for each of the pictures.

"Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa! Hi Papa!"

"Touch 'ur toes!"

She wasn't speaking when I took this picture, but I think her smile says it all.
