Sam! Finally!

Today was the first day I heard Sam say her name as, “Sam” as in, with an “S”. She had been saying her name as Nam for a while now. We also asked her what her name is and she said, Samantha, so she knows her full name despite our almost constant use of Sam. She does get called both pretty often, my mom only calls her Samantha, and we try to switch off so that she knows both refer to her. She also sort of knows her last name is Myers. She only says it sometimes without prompting, but it is so cute. Pronunciation must be so hard, on top of all the words kids have to learn, and Sam gets better and better every day. She is saying Zephyr better now too. Most of the time it still comes out with a B, but there are hints of a Z sound now. Way to go Sam!
