"Hearing" Celebrations!

Yesterday Kevin, Jake and I, celebrated Jake's 1 Year Hearing Birthday with his left ear!  Yes people, we celebrate "hearing" birthdays in our household.  Sounds funny, but to us, it has a been a sort of birth for Jake.  Jake has been hearing over two years already with his right ear.....and its crazy that now its been a whole year since activation with his left ear!  Gosh this year has just flown by.  I look back to his speech a year ago and although he had words, they were not very clear and he really didn't have significant sentences.  Now, he's a little chatterbox and its hard to imagine him not talking.  He even enjoyed singing "Happy Birthday" to his left ear....such a lil nuthead!
