Speech therapy

Sophia had speech therapy for the first time today :-) We have no expectations but the therapist wanted to know what other kids with her diagnosis have done so I asked my support group :-) Turns out some of them have been able to say a few words! I'm not getting my hopes up because Sophia's type and mutation is a more severe one. But I'm so genuinely happy for these other children that have found some words :-) I just watched the most adorable video of the only word a little boy ever said, one time, Mama :-) My mommy heart lept for joy for this mom  :-) Especially because she has this on video! :-) She will always be able to hear her son's voice say Mama. Makes me so grateful for technology! :-) Can you imagine being a pioneer in this situation for example? Losing your child and all you have is a mental image that will fade? Ugh.

Grateful today ;-)
