Talking Jesse said a word!

A real word, with meaning! Not at random, but a real, meaningful word. He picked up his big brother's football and said "football!" And then he said it five or six times more -- not a fluke!

We were so excited; everyone in the house was whoopin and hollerin!

Most of you are aware, but just in case you're wondering why I'm so excited, Jesse is basically non-verbal, autisic, and has sensory issues, so we have been dealing with a lot of unkonwns lately.

Praise God! Please pray that this is a trend!
