Weekend fun...

So people that have kids who are typical (meaning they develop every skill on time or pretty near to it) don't always understand how something so small like "I heard him say..." can really mean to us! Caleb hasn't been formally diagnosed with Apraxia but we continue to hear from his private speech therapist at the Children's Institute how he's looking like he's more Apraxic all the time. So yesterday we're at a picnic at Matt's cousin's house with a number of people we've never met. The one woman knew Matt's aunt and uncle fairly well and just kept saying how well behaved Caleb was and how adorable he is, bla bla bla all that other stuff that most parents love to hear (not that I don't - it's just way under rated when there are other things). I forget what Caleb said and I answered and I just kind of got this look when he did a sign and then I went into my Apraxia talk. She was shocked and just said how clear he seemed, etc... If people could only understand just how important that stuff is in comparison to how well behaved he was just for that second!
