We have been working overtime to get Maksim to use his words to tell us what he wants. Verbalizing needs makes life so much easier. He's been regressing recently because Royal is starting to communicate with grunts and finger pointing and Maks thinks it's HI-LARIOUS!
I noticed the pattern after some time and now we're telling both children to use their words. RoJo gives us the side-eye and grunts louder as if to say, "Sure lady...talk. Hold on while I get right on that..." Maks usually complies.
Knowing what people want is nice. I can only respond to requests I'm aware of.
Guessing is hard.
I need to take my own advice. :-D
