Comprehension

Kids are smart. Even though Stan B's speech is still developing, even though his pronunciation of words that he can say aren't perfect, he understands the things we say to him. Just because wee ones can't talk doesn't mean they don't understand. It doesn't mean they are stupid or slow. They are smart! They are amazing! He understands when I say, "Stan Burrito, that's not our mail. Come on." even though the word "mail" is not in his spoken vocabulary yet. He understands when I say, "Give the doggy a kiss." even though he has never said the word "kiss" before. Talking to our children is underrated. They comprehend more than you know. Talking to them is a huge part of their learning language. Before you know it he'll be cussing. Ha. Watch him comprehending my words:
