THREE YEARS BIG

It's so amazing to see how resilient young children can be especially if they are born with a hearing problem. I met the most delightful young lady today who is a 3 year bundle of energy. She had soft blond hair and was the most feminine little lady you can imagine. What I didn't recognize for quite some time was that she was wearing hearing aids in both of her ears. She has no stigma about her hearing and what others think. For her, it is a way to understand others and it will be a way of life for her. She does have to pay a little extra attention when you are talking mainly so she can distinguish certain letters and get her pronunciation right. Other than that you would never realize that she had any handicap. Why can't we be more like children??
