Good news? I'm all ears.

Or, more precisely, Luke is. We interrupt your regularly scheduled Disney trip report for the following news bulletin:

Luke's hearing test this morning was completely NORMAL!!! Dead on normal, in every single category. Which might explain why his language skills have been increasing by leaps and bounds in the last few weeks. He finally started using two word phrases right around the beginning of the month, and he seems to be picking up several new words each week. She said that is probably due simply to him finally being able to hear properly. She wants us to continue with speech therapy (or, more precisely, start it in a month as scheduled), then see us back in three months. If he shows language improvement and has a repeat normal hearing exam, we won't have to go back for six months to a year (depending on his progress). Yay!!

Currently feeling: absolutely thrilled!
