Hearing well!

We just had Ella's second speech pathology evaluation and they did a bunch of articulation tests and she did really well! All of her letter substitutions or wrong pronunciations are all developmentally normal ones (not abnormal which would then be attributed to her hearing loss). Apparently some sounds aren't acquired until age 4 or 6 and some even 8 years old! She also is "highly suggestable" (a good thing) which means that when they asked her to say "Yellow" after she'd said "Lellow," she could do it correctly. Overall, they're super impressed with her language skills, vocab, and comprehension. Although it's great that the county has all kinds of services for hearing impaired kids, it's really exciting each time she gets evaluated and they say she doesn't need any of them! We are really blessed :-)
