My son turned two last week and his speech blows me away. I love hearing him talk, literally you tell him a work once and it's memorized and part of his vocab. He speaks to me in sentences, describes things and shares thoughts. Numbers are sorted up to twenty, learnt a good few letters and is trying to understand time (never ends)
His recall is endless particularly in his area of focus for that month. We are on recognising cars at the moment. He has memorised every common car logo and points them out.
BUT
There is a shameful part of me that would love it is he could tone it down now and again. Even if we are out all day, physical and mental stimulation, he still is non-stop at home.
What does this do? What does that mean? Mummy it's a red nissan!! I have to answer everything he says or it will be repeated endlessly.
I have a nearly fifteen week old as well so exhaustion is guaranteed.
Am I terrible to wish he could just not want to learn anything new for ten minutes and be amused by Postman Pat?
