Lol, love the song. I'm really starting to feel pretty great about it, like it's going to be such an experience raising a child who requires me to learn and grow so much more as a person. Not that my other daughter who is hearing doesn't do the same, but it's just in a much more typical kind of way
The hardest part is that this is all just so new to me, I only had 1 (HoH or Deaf?) kid in my school and I never even said hi. I didn't even think about it, now I find myself wondering what he was like and how fairly rural mainstream school was for him. Guess I'll never know because I can't even remember his name
Exactly. It can be such an amazing experience raising a deaf kid....like " WOW...my kid can become fluent in ASL and be a part of an amazing vibrant community and culture. What an amazing opportunity for our family!"
And yes.......it is new, but soon it will feel like home.
