We have had a HUGE BREAK THROUGH...

and I didn't want to get too excited til I felt it was repeatable...

let me tell you its the best WORD I have heard from my HORSIE...EVER!!!!

It has taken Horsie 5 years 4 months and 13 days to do this.. and I am beyond PROUD, I am ecstatic..

He called me * M O M *
The sweetest word to any mommy's ears (and sometimes the most annoying...)

WONDERFUL MOM

oh and then in a few short days thereafter, on the weekend two words joined together...MOM COME!
He was motivated cause I had a bender weekend with a bachelorette party, and was "resting" in bed (MORE LIKE DYING) and he wanted a snack...AND anyone that knows Horsie will know he loves to snack (biltong, organic dried mango, gluten free, diarty free sugar free biscuits etc etc)

He said come mom!!!!

AND THE FINAL HOOORAAAAAH!!!!
Came today, he looked at me while we were in the car going to buy some foodies, and he looked straight at me (or through me) and smiled and said MAMA!!! and then mum mum....

RECOGNISED DIRECTED SPEECH!!!!

I can't tell you how
amazing this is
but as I blog this
tears well in my eyes
he is communicating purposefully
albeit elementary
he is doing it!!!!

MOM

Beautiful angel word
said by my beautiful angel boy

Nothing better...
