I took Gray to get a speech assesment because he has been struggling with his speech since he was 12 months old. He was never the type to imitate or mimik anything you would ask him to. He would just sit there and look at you and do his own thing. Months would go by before he would finally say the word on his own terms.
So off we went to our appointment and you had some hearing tests done and she went though some words with you to see what you could say or not say and scored you accordingly. its funny how every child learns at there own pace, at there own level. Gray is definitely behind on his speech for his age. He has actually qualified for a government program called Puff. Where he will start having speech aids come to our home and help him with his speech. Im not really fond of the idea having 2-3 different people visiting 3-4 times a week but I guess we'll make it work. Im excited for Gray to start this and to really help him communicate better :)
