Saw the ENT today

With all that is going on with JM's lip...one almost forgets that he had tubes put in his ears on the 4th as well. We saw the ENT today and after a bit of a struggle he was able to confirm that the tubes are in place and working properly. That was a relief. It seems that JM is "hearing"... the hard thing to determine with a 16 month old is just how much he hears. I know he likes the music that the kids play for him and he responds to some sounds...but other times I'm not sure that he "hears" everything.
He had fluid in his ears as well as some infection behind one of them prior to the surgery, so that in itself would give reason for some not normal findings in a hearing test...so we will have to keep an eye on it and they will let us know when and if we need to do anything else.
SF has his last day in the current school building. The High school that he teaches at is just completing a new building and they will make the move over the Holiday Break! The exciting part for us is that the school is only 5.4 miles from our house. The other school wasn't too far...but half the distance sounds good!
MR has one more week before her Break begins. I think she will be ready.
We have cold temps here again. I think it was around zero again this am. Thankfully it is white too! I always think if it is going to be cold then it should at least look nice.
OK need to work with SJ and EM on their "letters". Now is a good time while JM takes a nap!
ALL for now!
