First words!

James spoke his first post-operative words..."I have to go to the bathroom." Sounds tiny, but after not hearing him speak after brain surgery...it's huge. Couldn't have asked for a better Father's Day present. Hearing the news actually made me speechless.

We'll continue to work on getting him to use words (as temporary muteness can be a side effect of such operations) and hopefully soon he'll be driving us mad with his chatter.
