Smarty Pants...Amazes us everyday...

Today, we learned that Colby can write other words now and NOT just his name! I was sooo impressed I couldn't believe it! Then last night, we went on to sing a song pointing to his Caranium, Patella, Phalangies and spine. I had to ask him to repeat it because I was shocked!

Blessed with a loving family!
