This is the story of Nathan, who at two had no words. He was diagnosed with Childhood Apraxia of Speech and has begun his journey down the long road to find his own words.

So my baby boy is now a 3 year old! Not much new to report, but just wanted to share a couple of pictures and express my thankfulness for our little blessing. I love you sweet baby!
OMG! You did update your blog! Great photos! It was so great to get to enjoy Nathan while we were there. He is a blessing! Logan on the other hand....well, never mind....
Hello, Alison. You don't know me, but I found your blog through Jodi. I am so glad that you have blogged your son's journey. My son, Ethan, is two and a half with speech issues as well. He is currently in First Steps and waiting to get into the Rowe Center and Union Hospital's Pediatric Therapy. His speech therapist is almost certain that he has apraxia. He has sensory issues too. I am very thankful that I came across your blog. It gives me hope that Ethan's speech will improve. Our goal for now, is for him to be able to say his name. He has many approximations and two word utterances, but has yet to be able to correctly pronounce his name or the names of his siblings. Thanks again for sharing. Best of luck to Nathan! I think he has a bright future! Hope Massey
