Happy Hearing Birthday, Logan!

It has been one year since Logan's world opened up in a whole new way! It has been quite the journey, one that I never thought would be as difficult or as rewarding as it is. I remember thinking that Logan would never develop spoken language, never hear the sounds of the world or enjoy the voices of his family. Now I love when I hear him whisper a secret to his brother, giggle at the funny noises his little brother makes and even talk back to me when he's been naughty!

I will be forever grateful to Logan's surgeons, audiology team and therapists who have invested their time and efforts to help him succeed. I wasn't prepared for what all of this entailed. I had no idea that teaching Logan to speak would be such an educational process and I appreciate these professionals for sharing their wisdom and patience with me.

What a better way to celebrate than to be receiving a second "ear". We are excited and anxious for Tuesday to come. Thanks for all you well wishes.

Here's to many more beautiful, loud hearing birthdays to come!
