Today was such a wonderful start to the 4th of July weekend. We decided to take today for our big vacation day of fun. Knowing Saturday would be packed on a beatiful sunny day anywhere in Portland.
We were all sitting on a dock eating at Newport Bay. Boats coming and going, cool breeze, and constand chit around the table. I looked at my husband and smiled. I said, you know I use to dream of days liket this. Wondering if our family could sit, talk, laugh and just have fun without the struggles of trying to comunicate to a deaf child. It was so hard in those earlier years. Today our biggest concern was Ethan leaning over the water and losing a device. So we took it off and he was having a ball feeding the geese. No worries.
If you are in the earlier stages of CI work. The work is worth ever minute, every appointment, and every tear you will shed over progress or lack there of. I am so proud to know that Ethan is just a normal kid having fun with his family on a sunny day.
