Take him to be tested - find out and feel better. When I was pregnant I was called back to the doctor because one of the tests came back showing signs of something wrong. I remember Corey being tested in Pre-K for development. They were a little concerned because she was average in most but behind in some things. Then she needed speech therapy for a while. This will not be the first time someone tells you something could be wrong. You know Silas for the beautiful boy he is - and always will be.

I hope this gets resolved soon. When we left the hospital with baby Dora, the doctor who released us said "you know this baby better than anyone else". That's still true. We had to do an EEG for seizure activity, too - we had actually seen it - when Dora was really small. I knew what I had seen wasn't normal, but somehow I knew she was also going to be ok - that what we were seeing was some anomaly that was going to resolve. The EEG came back normal. I think if you believe that Silas is ok, he is. But your friend Melisa has a good suggestion above - take him to your trusted pediatrician and get the worry resolved once and for all. Love to see you here again! Hey there – Love the photo of the dandelion with Silas in the background. I hope this gets resolved soon.

However, there is no reason to beat yourself up with worry about this. Get him evaluated so that you do not have to have anxiety attacks about whether they are right or not. The evaluation will not hurt him, and it might help you learn some new things about his already awesome abilities. And then you won't have to worry so much.
