Simply Beautiful! I can't believe how much Joseph's speech is already developed before getting his hearing aids! I cried hearing Joseph call you Mommy and Daddy!!
Oh my goodness! Emmy caught this first and told me to find it. What a precious video. Doug and I laughed (well...I cried too!) so hard. Blessings to the sweet Oatsvall team. Love you all.
Mercy! That is just amazing! I love his joy...uncontainable! So sweet to hear him call his name and momma and daddy...TEARS! To think how far he has come!
Praise Jesus for the great things He has done for your sweet boy! I am thrilled to hear his voice of JOY!!!!! Simply precious!!!!!! Love u guys!!!! LIsa
Oh Gwen! What a precious gift that we daily take advantage of! So thankful for little Joseph! Love how these little ones continue to teach me the blessings of the life we have been given! Oh how I love your precious family!
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!
Thanks for sharing...I felt like I was on the edge of my seat watching as he was listening to his own voice! Precious. Makes us all thankful just to HEAR:) God bless you woman. You are wonderful.
Amazing! Like everyone else, I'm wiping away tears of joy over this moment in his life... and what it will mean in the months to come! So beautiful. Our Lord is so merciful, loving, and incredibly creative to provide like this!
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! kate
