Putting words together

My boy will turn 3 in a few days but still is nowhere near a normal toddler in terms of his vocabulary or language development. Not a problem, though. Daniel manages to get his message across with a few choice infantile utterances. "Bah-bah" for good-bye, for instance... "Car-car" for going in the car...

This past Saturday morning, I was loading up the van with a few bags and suitcases for a brief trip. As I was going in and out of the house, Danny watched me like he was following a tennis match. Back and forth, back and forth from the house to the driveway.

Suddenly, with all the effort he could muster, Daniel exclaimed, "Go... bah-bah!"

My heart melted.
