Nathaniel wanted to congratulate someone by saying, "Mazel Tov". He opened his mouth, closed his mouth, and then moved his tongue up to the roof of his mouth. No sound came out, but he seemed to move his mouth and tongue to form the word "Mazel".

 

Nathaniel's voice is getting stronger. When something amuses him, he can make a loud laugh sound.

 

The caregiver was reading Tehillim with Nathaniel. He turned away for a bit and told Nathaniel to continue. At first Nathaniel just looked ahead. Then the caregiver told him again to continue. He then saw Nathaniel scan his finger across the lines and move his head accordingly and when he got to the bottom of a page, he turned to the next one. If two pages stuck together, he worked until he just turned one page. This "reading" went on for close to 20 minutes.

 

Nathaniel went to an opera concert. He smiled the entire time. The next day, he went to a park where there is a way to hear a recording of Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake" by the lake. Nathaniel moved his finger back and forth as if he were conducting the orchestra.
