Hearing Aids for Sage

Sage finally got her hearing aids. She seems to be doing really well with them. She is actually getting angry when we take them out. She really doesn't pull them out but she does knock them out when she does her scooting. She is also jabbering a lot now.

Amazing what happens when you can hear what is going on around you. I keep imagining that we must have sounded like the adults in the Peanuts cartoons.

Today we had Sage's vision therapist here today. She is so great she works really well with Sage, but I think the most excited person has to be Fay. Fay can't wait for our visits with her. During the visit we have to remind Fay to calm down because she wants to see what fun activities she gets to do. She is such a great helper.

Also received a phone call from the pediatrician. She is helping us start the process of getting Sage a wheelchair. My little 18 lb baby is going to be harder to carry as the days progress. Better get started on the process now.

We are now the legal guardian of Fay

As of Tuesday, Mark and I are now the legal guardian of Fay. She was so happy to hear this news. She keeps saying how happy she is to be living with us, and that she wants to live with us forever and ever till she dies.

New to Blogging

I am new to this, and hope that I can make a productive blog.

We are the Hudson's. My husband, Mark, and I are the proud parents of two wonderful girls. Fay, 5, is actually our niece, but we have always known she was meant to be our daughter. She has been our first daughter for over three years. We are in the final stages of getting custody of her. She has just started Kindergarten this year and is loving it.

Fay is the big sister to Sage, 8 months. Sage has recently been diagnosed Joubert Syndrome. We are in the process of finding out what this means for her. She is our little child who is growing at her own pace. She is blind and developmentally delayed. She is a happy child who is teaching us patience.
