What? Huh?

A bit shocked, a bit disappointed, a bit excited, and a bit numb.
Harry has said "what" for the last 4 or so months and it has been driving me crazy.  Chad and I have just assumed he just doesn't pay attention or it is habit.  Two weeks ago I just out of the blue(AKA God) thought I may get his ears checked just in case there could be a problem.  I really thought I would go into the CCD and they would tell me I just had a three year old boy who is too involved in other things and doesn't want to listen to his mama!  Well, I was wrong!  Dr. Black told me that his left ear has so much fluid that iti s like he hears underwater.  He said Harry has a significant amount of hearing loss in his left ear and some in is right ear.  I would never had know if I didn't just get this hunch from God to have him get a test. Dr. Black also tested Harry and said he has learned to read lips.  Chad told me that a few days ago and I did not believe him!  I just thought it was normal.  I also look back and notice other things, like how Harry sits when I read to him.  He has his ear right to my mouth looking out.  God is good, all Harry has to do is go through a little procedure of getting tubes and then they are going to take out his adenoids.  We have been down this road before and I feel so blessed to know that he can be free from hearing loss in a little over a week!  I think I am just more annoyed at myself for not noticing this sooner.

Harry Gets Tubes

Harry got tubes! We went in Friday morning and in 10 minutes he was "tubed"! We are so thankful that my Mom and Dad came to town to take care of Harry the rest of the day so that we did not have to miss more work. We didn't even have to ask, once they heard Harry was going to be getting the procedure done, they were ready to come support him. I can't say that coming home to a spotless house was not a plus! Chad and I laugh because when Bobo and Coco our here, our weeds are suddenly gone and our house is spotless when they leave. It also seems that we all get special gifts as well! Harry loves it when they come to visit, the love does not stop, or the ice cream, popsicles, play time, etc.....
Harry is sleeping better and in zero pain, it seems. We didn't even know he had ear infections most of the time! We are so thankful taht Harry is painless! We had a great weekend with friends and family!
