My son has hearing aides as well. What a blessing! I'm so glad you were able to view this as a blessing. So many parents are devastated when they learn their child needs hear aides, but it is a joyful thing! Praising Him with you today!

This is so amazing. I am in LOVE with the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community. I'm an interpreter for a hard of hearing student in a school. I've done missions in Honduras with the Deaf and know what it's like for them to finally feel love and to FINALLY learn a language. But to watch a sweet child Hear was an absolute blessing to my heart. Thanks so much for sharing!

loved watching that! so amazing to see someone hear for the first....that is something that we often take for granted. love reading about such great families. I've always wanted to adopt since my parents can't have any more kids and I have always loved "big" families (our family only has 4 kids, so were not a "big" family :) ). Unfortunately, God has not opened those doors (or my parents hearts) to adoption yet, so we're a 6-some for now. praying for your precious family!
