I want to post some things on here for myself, because I don't want to forget them. I'll add to the list as I think of things.
Collin was a man of few words, but still very much able to get his point across.
He could say:
Mama
Dada!! (always very enthusiastic)
All done
Night-Night
Cheese ("kee")
Bye-bye
Animal sounds: Moo, Baa!!, "duck" instead of quack, Neigh, Woof, "Mee" for meow,
Doggie "duh-duh"
Elmo (eh-mo)
Moon (moo...) Collin loved to go outside and look at the moon with his Daddy.
He could sign:
Cracker (over and over)
Milk (his bottle)
Food/Hungry
More
Please (when he signed this, he always got a sweet little smile on his face)
Oreo (like twisting an oreo)
All done
Around and around (used for anything he saw that was going around, helicopter blades, thing on tv, toys, wheels on the bus, food in the microwave - he also used this sign to tell us he wanted mac n cheese.)
Plenty of pointing, waving, and blowing kisses
Collin Walker, mama misses your sweet baby voice. I love you.
Just a note to say that we're still praying for you. Every time I think of you guys, which is often.
ReplyDeleteI never knew you (or Collin) personally, but my family and friends followed your journey on Caring Bridges, after a mutual friend requested prayer for you on facebook, over a year ago.
We're praying. ((hugs))
Thinking and praying for you, as Christmas approaches.
ReplyDeleteWanted to let you know that tomorrow I will be singing HAppy Birthday to Collin and I pray he will send you a sign he is enjoying his birthday in heaven. Thinking of you!

Thinking of you today, 1 year already since Collin got to go fly with the angels. I love to come here to see his big smile... Always in my heart.
