Hearing Therapy

Ellie has failed every hearing test and is labelled "legally deaf". She is on the registry of blind and deaf children in Michigan. We, of course, never bought that. We know that her brain does not always process stimuli correctly or quickly, but she can definitely see and hear.

In this video, Ellie surprises the audiologist. When she hears the noise she breaks into a huge smile. Who you calling legally deaf?

Winter is here

The boys are thoroughly enjoying it.

All dressed up...

For the church Christmas party. Her first princess dress, and she rocked it!
