Timeout and a Tutu


This past week when Millie was at ABA therapy with Ms. Kim, she got her first timeout there. Millie did not like it. Her exact words were, "“I wish my mommy was coming to Miss Kim’s house right now.” She also said, "I made a wish." This is amazing language for her. We didn't know that she really knew what a wish was.

We just discovered that Millie can read numbers "one to nineteen" and most of the color words, "red, green, yellow, etc." She seems pretty ready now, so we will be introducing a few more words. I have already been teaching her a couple of words when we are reading stories at night. So far she knows "to, said, and, the," and a couple others.

I have been on an exercise kick the past two weeks. I took Millie out in her wagon one night last week to take a walk after dinner. Now she is asking me every night to go for a wagon ride. Tonight she started asking before dinner. The past two nights she has sang the entire way. She sings her "Little Red Wagon" song from school every time for sure. Tonight she was making up funny lyrics to the tune of "The Farmer in the Dell." Instead, she sang, "The stick picks the berry." and whatever else she saw along the way.

Thank you to Gram Crackers for the awesome princess PJ's that are featured in the picture above. Of course, Millie loves them. We will see if she wants to sleep with the skirt on or not tonight!
