I hear "hello?" so I turn around to see Aidan talking into a coffee cup like it's a phone.

Here's the conversation:

Aidan: hello Smurfette? Can you hear me? Yes I can hear you. What? I don't have time for this. Where is Papa Smurf? *whispering* I'm in the car with mommy. Yeah? Okay. Stay in here! I mean it. Call me, okay? Alright I'll be right over. *hangs up*

Me: What did Smurfette have to say?

Aidan: She's drinking hot chocolate.

We really didn't think he'd develop imaginary play but he definitely is. He's just so damn adorable.

Apples are evil. Turn yours over. Look at the logo. See the bite missing. Eve has been at play with the snake. tongue

lol! No, an actual Gala apple!

Aidan has really just impressed me so much. He's really made me say; "wait, what did you say/do?" in a very positive sense. I am, of course, speaking past my unconditional love squeal.

I am very impressed. Neither of my children have very much imagination. They didn't play with dolls even.

He has Fragile X Syndrome and mild Autism so that basically means he is mentally challenged. His imaginary play is very late, but it is there. He's progressed so much in the past few years so we are very very happy. Doctors think his mental age is 3-4 but I think it is around 5 or 6. So he isn't as far behind as we once thought.

He still continues to amuse us, clearly. tongue

My son has Asperger's Syndrome. ADHD and social anxiety. My daughter isn't quite typical either but she is never going to be diagnosed with anything because she forces herself to be social for some reason. My kids have taught me to listen to the doctors less and to appreciate their strengths not their weaknesses. They are a gift.
