Even though I was so ecstatic for that milestone I immediately attached my heart to another one. I could not wait for the day for him to say "I love you". Sure once he started mimicking things he would say it back to me, but he would never just say it independently.
Tonight, as I tucked him into bed and leaned in to give him a kiss he turned his beautiful eyes towards mine. He grabbed my cheeks and said, "I yuv you".
"I yuv you."
Can you believe it??? The first time he has ever said it independently. I cried. I hugged him and kissed him and hugged him some more. I ran downstairs and shouted it to Josh and Corbin. I cried a little more.
"I yuv you."
Seriously, nothing can beat that.

Awesome!!!! He has made such great progress!
Best feeling ever. Even K didn't say it, without me saying it first, until last year. It is so weird having a NT kid who has been saying it for SO long, too. I love to hear it...makes my day.
