A cute example of Victor being put to sleep at night and what he says to his toy fuzzy.
In the morning when he wakes up and starts talking to his Fuzzy again and shows an example of how he started to talk in context.
In this audio clip I ask Victor where my wife Onie is. His response "I do goodies. Onie at school to play pick up penny"
He is worried because my wife is outside and he is afraid she may be attached and get mistreated.
He asks me where my son is and I answer him. After I answer he says: "Good Answer" . I think he has been watching too much of "I Want To be A Millionaire"
My wife and son go out for the day and Victor asks me if I am going to stay with him.
He talks about my computer and how is needs to be cleaned and where it is.
Victor gets up to the microphone to talk and when I question him about something he says he just started to think
After being recorded he asks me when I am going to replay it so he can hear it.
In this recording I tell him he talks too fast and he responds with "I talk fast. So whatever"
In this one he tells Victor makes up his own .com name
Victor who is a messy budgie, starts telling a story about a dirty pig bird.
In this recording Victor reminds me that I told him if he wanted something he should just ask. Guess what, he wants something again!
Talk and play day is talk in the mike and play the recordings. Victor designates special days this should be done. Usually every day would suit him.
On this Sunday morning my wife and son are going out. Victor is thinking to himself that they must be going to church because it is Sunday. Victor often thought out loud.
Victor makes a remark about watching TV and says something to the effect that it is good that we collect and save his poops. I don't think he fully understands the concept of garbage. Or maybe he does and he is just trying to be funny.
I would often try to teach something to Victor by telling a story. I didn't realize at the time that he was listening carefully to every word I said and understanding it perfectly. He even started tell me his own stories back.
On this particlular day Victor is recovering from a stomach ache. When I ask him about it he says he is feeling better.
He remembers and tells about something that happens more than a year ago just to try and convince gramma he is talking in context.
