31 for 21 -- A Glimpse into John Michael's World -- Day #20


It's been a very long time since I've posted a video of John Michael.  He got these bowling pin animals out of the garage and wanted to play with them after preschool today.  I love how he lines them up, in a nearly straight line.  They're like his little buddies and then when they're not looking, he bowls them over with his ball and starts all over again.

BUT!  In this video, Luke totally steals the show at the end... I love his little "yeah" and his "hi", even if he's being naughty.  ;-)

I just wanted to point out that you should talk A LOT to your child... re-inforce words, ask questions, model correct language and be patient for the answers... This is important for ALL children, but good modeling is crucial for kids with Ds who are such copycats.
