Wordy

Matthew has been talking a lot more lately. If you do not understand exactly what he is saying, he will most likely keep repeating it until you pick up on what he is trying to say. Lately his parents have been trying to teach him "please" and "thank you"; he is getting better but right now it sounds like "peas" and "tank you". Some time Matthew is stubborn and will refuse to say please, but there is no doubt that he knows what it means, because if he wants to do something he is not allowed to do (like climbing on top of unstable objects) he doesn't hesitate to point and say PLEASE.
Please can I play with my puzzles.
Matthew went to a professional bull riding event in Augusta last weekend. He had great seats and could watch all the bulls before they entered the chutes. He was very pleased every time he could point at the bulls, so "moo", and be correct. Matthew also made sure to tell every rider "uh-oh" when they were bucked off, whether it was after an 8 second ride or not. There were also dog-dog acts at the bull riding which did a good job of keeping the little boy entertained.
In addition to saying "please" he has also gotten good at "cheese" for the camera. Matthew is having fun and learning new words, and new tricks, all the time.
