DS5 is 2.8y and non-verbal:
OMG OMG OMG S T O P T H E P R E S S
DS5 just brought me a book as usual, he loves them. They are the Usborne 'Look & Say' variety, great books! good quality, bright simple pictures. anyway i digress...
so he brought me the book and sat on my lap and pointed at a couple of items, which i duly signed for him. THEN... he hesitated, so i pointed to a pic, and HE SIGNED correctly 'cake', so i tried another (one i knew he knew well), and HE SIGNED AGAIN 'drink', so i pushed my luck and pointed, and he signed correctly 'ball', by this point im clapping and getting very excited and telling him how clever and wonderful he is! he beamed at me, then he got bored and wondered off.
Its the first time hes named/signed on request. Im delighted!!!!!
