Master of Letters Part 2


Bradley is doing better, by the way, although last night he did have a low grade fever. It did not spike and was gone by the middle of the night with only one administration of Tylenol. What is so weird about all this is that he acts perfectly normal then all of a sudden has a fever. It's nerve-wracking.

Here we see Bradley in a couple of his normal moments, demonstrating some of his talents. At nineteen months, he knows all of his letters and all his numbers up to ten. He recognizes and reads certain words he likes, like "Thank You," "Big" and "Thomas." When we are at a restaurant and a garbage can says "Thank You," he will point to it and say 'thank you.' Sometimes, out of the blue, he starts talking to himself and you can hear him count to ten.

This video shows him reading the words "Thank You" and telling Daddy all his letters except for K and Y. He does know those letters, too, but was holding back apparently. He also mixed up J for a second, but that was because he had the Z in his hand backwards, so he said "S."

He's so advanced he's scary. Will he be heading to Vanderbilt or Michigan at age 10? And will Michigan have a football team by then?
