Playtime while we wait to see Cheryl
Lily had a great visit with Cheryl at Zimmerman Speech & Hearing Center yesterday! She showed off her new skills that even mommy hadn't seen yet. It is pretty amazing to see the progression kids make once they get cochlear implants. It is almost like watching a baby learn to speak, but I can honestly say it is also quite a bit different. It makes me so happy that we made the choice to get cochlear implants for Lily.
Lily absolutely loves going to see Cheryl every week! I couldn't believe she actually let Cheryl hold her hand and walk her to the lobby yesterday. Of course, I missed the picture moment! Lily is a pretty shy little girl who is timid about people, outside of her immediate family, touching her. So you can see why this is so cool and speaks volumes about Cheryl! Lily trusts Cheryl enough to let her walk her to the lobby holding hands. What a special moment!
So now let me see if I can recap the amazing things that Cheryl and I saw yesterday. Well maybe I will wait and let you discover them in the video I am going to attach to this post. It is so much more fun to see the end results of weeks of practice isn't it? I think it is!
So there you have it! Lily is doing phenomenally! She loves going to see Cheryl every week and learning all of these new sounds! We can't wait to see what the future holds for Lily on this hearing journey of hers!
Lily loves this dollhouse so much she wanted to play "in" it!
