Appreciate the little things...

It's raining at my house. Jarrah had recently got up from having a nap, and i'd been cooking dinner, so i hadn't yet put his hearing aids in. I pointed out to him that it was raining, so he rushed over to the door to look at the rain. Lately, he's been saying to me, "Can you hear the plane?" when there's been a plane flying overhead, which made me realise that he probably couldn't hear the rain without his ears in...

*Sigh*, get the goop, put them in...then i could ask him, "Can you hear the rain?" "Yes," he said, "hear the rain!"

Praise God for technology that can help my deaf son hear the pitter-patter of rain on the roof...

BTW, we cancelled all our September appointments as Jarrah was quite unwell - turned out he contracted Roseola, otherwise known as Baby Measles, so he had his latest Study assessment just last week, and his regular Australian Hearing checkup was rescheduled for...November 18. Yes, 8-9 weeks wait. Nevermind, at least J&K are on the same day this time!
