We wondered the same stuff, as they NEVER could name a color, guessing pink all the time. Now, I am happy to say, they are totally figuring it out. Weird, huh?Farmboy and Buttercuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09468429279918964719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14252293.post-31767085576207372092008-10-20T20:26:00.000-06:002008-10-20T20:26:00.000-06:00I am so glad Child Find worked out for you!

They have been such a great experience for us and I am glad you got in ~ I knew Yosef was perfect (wink, wink) But, why wait six months for the opthalmologist? Why not have him tested for color-blindness now so you can help him as early as possible?

As a result, he is taking a stand against the shackling of color theory and allow each hue to just BE.<BR/><BR/>:)Jeannetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05378569765609750176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14252293.post-4305285280223901862008-10-17T00:44:00.000-06:002008-10-17T00:44:00.000-06:00Brianna, your kids are all adorable.

She's been home 7 months (she's 5 and a half) and is so quick to catch nearly everything. But only knows one color (orange). Our younger son (adopted at the same time) is doing well, but hasn't picked up on quite as much as her generally, but he knows most of his colors...<BR/><BR/>Congrats on having a super-smart kiddo. ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09629566265778204962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14252293.post-19199701605822262402008-10-16T17:46:00.000-06:002008-10-16T17:46:00.000-06:00What a handsome young man!
