2/3/23 -Jackson is echoing some words!!!! Mama, Dada, More, Please, bye, bubble, all done and TODAY he added “Mine” to the list! He is not currently using these words in context or on his own, but I have a feeling he will be soon! You can tell that it is still challenging for him to form words.

1/16/24- A moment of sadness hit me. Jackson noticed I was crying and got in my lap. He looked into my eyes with compassion. I noticed him start to smile as he wiggled his fingers under my neck in an attempt to tickle me. This is the first time he had ever responded to my tears. He knew I was sad and he wanted me to be happy! A special moment I felt was worth documenting 🥰
