Oh, no, he's very social and affectionate. He gives hugs and kisses and lots of cuddles. He always kisses my grandma and John's aunt and mom goodbye.
When my uncle was little, he had very few verbal skills. He would say one word over and over for a long period of time, then switch to a knew word. My grandma was so worried about it, sure he had learning differences or something. Apparently he was just striving for mastery of language before using it. He went from saying one word over and over to speaking in full sentences overnight. He's a genius now, so it all worked out.People are crazy.
So, Aedan can use silverware and drink of cups without spilling. He has great gross and fine motor skills - very advanced according to the person who evaluated him the other day. But, he barely talks. Which is why I had him evaluated. I guess the first person was the pre-evaluater and someone else will be doing the real evaluation to see if he qualifies for an early intervention program. The pediatrician said he should have around 50 words by now, and he doesn't. Personally, I think it's stubborness. He communicates his needs and wants very well without words, so I think he just doesn't see the point in using them. And there's no power on earth that's gonna get that boy to do anything he doesn't want to do. I've never met a more hard-headed child in my life. But I'm still having him evaluated because if he does need help, I want him to have it.
Late talking can be an inherited trait. My sister had a son who didn’t talk until nearly five. He grew up and had two sons who also didn’t talk until about four or five. All of them within a matter of a few months went from non speaking to full sentences and excellent communication While my nephew is pretty much just regular intelligence both of his children are in the gifted category.People are crazy.

True although I’ve done this, but inconsistently.What about a smaller start of a diary?
You should get an X-ray. You could've broken some bones. There are 26 in our feet.So I'm an idiot. I was sitting in my yard and decided to move a cinder block that was just sitting there for no reason. Apparently I didn't have a good grip and dropped it...right on my foot. I don't think I broke it but it is severely bruised and swollen up.
But what really upsets me is that I broke a nail. This makes 3 nails in two days. All on the same hand.
I sure hope they grow back out quickly.
Have you tried Facebook? I hate using my real name on there though. That's why I have it set to private and only added 27 family/friends. But it's really boring with that few people. I prefer it here on TCS.I’ve been contemplating starting a blog about many things in my life that create a narrative that I sometimes have no control over.
Jeez, I hope you're okay! I broke a nail last night opening a bottle of hot sauce. The dang bottle had a piece of plastic over the spout. My dad had to get out a jackknife to remove it.This makes 3 nails in two days. All on the same hand.
Hope all goes wellMy next class is intermediate ICD/CPT coding
I thought by law that had to be removed?I'm very concerned about the asbestos in my house. I had to make a hole in the ceiling to hang another light for my aquarium and I didn't consider the dust from the dry wall. There are multiple holes in the ceiling from my parents hanging stuff here back in the 80s/90s.
These holes are constantly dropping dust and stuff. My anxiety is really bad right now because the dark voice in my head is telling me that I'm going to get lung cancer.
I tried to wash the dust off of my hands and face but I'm so scared.
My house was build in the 1960s.I thought by law that had to be removed?
