There was a time, feels like forever ago, when he had no words.
As I'm leaving Kelly's this morning and telling Declan goodbye and that I love him he smiles and says loudly and clearly "See you later Mommy!" He's a person.
When I got home from work today I got the usual two arm, leg wrap hug. Then I picked him up. He looks me in the eye and pushes on my arms with both hands and says "Squeeze Mommy. Squeeze tight!" When I set him back down I asked him how his day was at Kelly's. He mumbled something "Kelly's house" and then I asked if he played with his friends. He replied by happily running through a list of the kids names. That was when Daddy told me that when Declan left Kelly's today he said goodbye to all the kids and called them by name.
Oh my heart, it hurts.
