Joseph sang Jingle Bell!

Nothing can be more exciting than to share with you guys a moment of Christmas miracle that I witness yesterday on Christmas eve. Joseph is not a very verbal boy. He speaks a lot but most of the time he speaks in a language that none of us therapist can understand. But something miraculous happen yesterday.

HE SANG JINGLE BELL!!!

During our daily song session in this festive month, we had been singing a lot of Christmas song especially the infamous Jingle Bell. While my colleague is giving out the bells to the other kids so that they can play the bell and sing Jingle Bell, suddenly Joseph start singing...

"Jingle Bell Jingle Bell Jingle All The Way... ohhwaohhananahitistonahonehossay... HEY! Jingle Bell Jingle Bell Jingle All The Way..."

The "Jingle Bell Jingle Bell Jingle All The Way" is so clear. We can hear each word coming out from his tiny mouth. We were all shock and totally impressed. We all kept quiet and he just kept singing alone. After a while, he got shy and stopped. It was the talk of the day.

I believe this is all hard work from the therapists. We all kept singing to him and he kept listening to it. That is how the song for registered into him. But the most wonderful part was, he just suddenly start singing solo in front of everyone. Oh gosh... you should see the shocked face in each of the therapist. Even now when I'm typing this out, I can still remember his sweet voice echoing in my head. It really put a smile on my face and make this Christmas very special for all the therapists.

Well, maybe Santa did a little bit of magic over here as well. Christmas is indeed MAGICAL! =D
