Hi everyone,
I hope where ever you live , you are enjoying your summer.
Amelia 's weekly therapy sessions have started again this week, and today was her first visit in about a month and a half. As usual I don't get to be there , but Mom does her very best to keep me in the loop .
As usual Amelia was full of fire today!!! She marched on in to her appointment today , like she owned the joint and in Amelia's world, she owns most places she goes lol . Her therapy session went great , and her AVT is very very happy with Amelia's progress!!! Amelia has developed so many verbal skills in a very short time that she figures she is months ahead of where she should be. This past weekend she managed to say the word "More" . As a family , we could not be happier about all of this. We really are blessed as a family to have Amelia come to us , to teach us about growing, learning , teaching, and most importantly caring... All those aspects factor in Amelia's growth , and has helped teach our family the simple joy in being able to talk, hear , and really listen!
I will end this by saying thank you to Sonya... With out your love to our little girl , and your great ability to manage the house, the kids, and a marriage from a far most days , all of Amelia's gains would never have happened with such great results so far.
You are Amazing!!!!

It's so great to see a father's perspective of a child's cochlear implant journey! I found your blog via DeafVillage, of which I am a member but there seems to be a glitch right now and my blog isn't showing. I hope you'll take a peek as I have many articles and stories that pertain to parenting a deaf or hoh child. It's at http://www.hearingexchange.com I'll be back to read more of your story! :)
I love, love, love that picture of her :)
