Communication with a 14 month old
The scene: The family room
The players: Gregory, standing at the coffee table, fussing
Amber, sitting on the couch across the room
“Gregory, do you want to come over the couch and be nursed?”
Gregory vehemently shakes his head no
“Gregory, do you want to stand there and fuss?”
Gregory nods yes as he bounces up and down
This morning after I took him out of his high chair I asked him where he wanted to go. He pointed so I took him in the direction he pointed. We then were standing in the entry and I asked him again where he wanted to go… this time he said quite clearly “outside”. I love this whole beginning communication thing! Kids are just great, even when they don’t want to fall asleep and it is almost two hours after their bedtime. ![]()
