Gage's school papers

Today they had extra time in class to draw pictures of their choosing. Gage drew several things and one was a bus w/the words "baby toy" on the side. Under the picture he wrote "bu bu bu". I asked what this was for and he said "that's the sound for the bus!" He remembers those Learning to Listen sounds from when they were first implanted!! He's right the bus is bu bu bu bus. Also in his paperwork was a sheet in which he scored a 97. The teacher called out words and they had to write down the ending sound they heard (ex. g for egg or x for fox). The list goes on as they have to write the beginning sounds and middle. A 97, w/one implant!!!

I totally think the LTL sounds help our kids read! The implant IS amazing!!! of course it doesn't happen 'all by itself.' Mom has just a little bit to do with it;)

That's wonderful for Gage. I'm still amazed how well kids do with CI's. I can't wait for Landon to start hearing.
