In Which This Girl Should Not Be On Fire

March 16th, 2013 by

I’ve had the stomach bug for a few days and now that I’m recovered, the kids seem to be coming down with it. It’s almost ten in the morning and they’re both still asleep, which is a practically unheard-of occurrence in this household.  Hopefully they’ll be over Read More

Spinning….

March 12th, 2013 by

Christian’s been bilateral for almost a year. The series of mapping appointments we’ve had over the past several months have shown that both his right and his left ears are in the 15-20 db range. His right ear speech perception scores are unbelievably amazing in the high 90th Read More

Let’s Hear It for Almigal / Please vote and show support

March 11th, 2013 by

I will always support special needs related endeavors of any sort, especially when it can be hard to find social stories like this. Wendy Kupfer is a great author of this wonderful book inspired by her amazing daughter who has hearing loss. If you have a daughter, it can be a very relatable Read More

Letter from Lucas

March 11th, 2013 by

Today after being sick for 2 weeks, LJ returned to school. It was a different morning from the usual. We had to pick up Papa and we both dropped LJ off at school, only I didn’t stay for circle time because I had to drop off Papa to work. I have been feeling under the weather so my mind Read More

Center for Early Intervention on Deafness (CEID)

March 10th, 2013 by

My family is doing fundraising efforts for his current school. I am hoping you can help me raise funds for his school. This may very well be his last year here unless by the grace of God they miraculously extend their services into Elementary school years (most likely not) and I want Team LJ to Read More

sh*t happens

March 10th, 2013 by

LJ is finally *crossing my fingers* feeling better and is slowly looking and acting like his normal self.  We ventured out to get his glasses fixed and had a little lunch.  Later we went back out for dinner but I fed him before we left.  When we got home we played a bit and then when he was Read More

In Which These Little Piggies Came Home

Just a word of warning– Connor went to bed at about four thirty in the morning, and his meds were due at six.  So I’m just a tad bit loopy writing this.  Don’t expect a masterpiece. Anyway, I’d like to introduce you to the two new members of our wacky little Read More

Friends have suggested that I do an IamA on reddit.com, since Deaf writers (and novelists) are uncommon. Posting this here simply for proof that I am who I say I am. (Not Popeye, not Sam-I-Am) Cheers, Redditors! Read More

In Which We Do A Lot Of Stuff And Things

March 8th, 2013 by

I’m afraid I may have to turn on that darn “weed out the spambots” button– the spam is getting kind of ridiculous now and I have quite a bit less time to spend deleting it all, dang it. We had an extremely busy week around here!  Connor went almost ten days without Read More
