Vocalizations...

Dear Nicky,

We're not sure if it's just our imagination, our hopeful thinking, but Mom and I are both thinking that since the ear tubes have gone in, you're making more sounds, and more complex sounds, than you did pre-op. Also, today you ate a cracker, not the whole thing, but you held in your hands and munched on it for a very long time. You munched and you swallowed, too. No drama, no freak outs. Maybe it was the fluid in your ears causing a whole host of challenges, maybe not. But whatever's going on, it seems like you're making up for lost time. You're the best!

Love,
Dad
