Haley McGuire shared her son Micah 's achievement on TikTok in the Fall of 2020 .
The video of Micah repeating the names of his family members as they cheer in the background received over 2 million favorites.
Since the video was first recorded, Micah has shown no signs of slowing his progress.
The family is on a journey to help Micah learn to spell.
