When toddlers move about from room to room carrying their favorite toys or blankie in hand, many parents wouldn't think much of it. They probably wouldn't recognize this as an accomplishment or even realize it's a milestone. But we're not like many parents. We notice every little thing our amazing little guy does because his skills and milestones come much slower than that of typically developing children.
Today, for the first time EVER in his 4 years of life, Philippe came walking in our room with a toy in his hand!!! His Woody doll to be specific. I was so shocked and excited I froze in place, speechless, and almost cried! This was so great for 2 reasons: 1, Philippe almost never even looks at toys that don't have lights, buttons, and sounds, and 2, usually he sits with a toy and hits the same button over and over again until he simply gets up and walks away, but he has never grabbed a toy and walked around with it in his hand before!
Progress is being made! He's learning and growing and I'm so happy and blessed to have a front row seat to it every day. He's the BEST!
