Awww this tears me up. I thought my autistic son would be non verbal for life, he just turned six & while he’s not talking 100% of the time, he’s saying a whole lot some days. He doesn’t say good morning, hi, bye, ask for mommy/ daddy, or answer questions yet. But he rambles on & on talking about other stuff he hears. He’s also following directions amazingly🥹He kept telling me he was a kangaroo in the shower last night, and I told him I didn’t believe him, so he jumped♥️♥️ he was also telling me to say I’m beautiful, hahah why I know he’s hearing these phrases at school. it melts my mama heart to hear his beautiful voice. Everyone out there with severe autistic children please keep hope alive!!
