Goodbye Word Wall

Time to say good bye to the word wall.  I will put it in the post so it's not just deleted.  Luke has amazing communication skills.  He easily says four words together (not quite following good sentence structure).  It is typically very descriptive and often pretty witty.  He can easily answer "wh" questions, even about a story.  He can even predict things that will happen in a story after just reading once or twice.  He is very polite and will say "thank you much" for anything that is done for him.  It's great that the boys can play and communicate as peers now.

1/12: I can't keep track of Luke's words anymore. He says nearly anything now. However, it's always just one word at a time. Only a handful of times have I heard him putting two words together. It sure makes things easier when they can say what they want. Well most of the time...
