He Hears! Listening is Another Story.

For the first time in Micah's nearly 8 years of life, he passed a hearing test today.

He passed a hearing test for the very first time way back when he was just 4 years, 6 months and a few days - it was a big deal, and a long 4.5 years of testing and wondering up to that point. But that passing just put him *mostly* in the normal range. There were some ranges that he simply didn't hear, or didn't hear well. In the three and a half years following that first passed test, he's had a myriad of tests that ranged from "huh, we just weren't able to get a reading at all based on his lack of cooperation" to "he's pretty good today, but can't hear the highest and lowest frequencies."

But today, Micah passed, hearing all ranges. Today is a day for celebration.

I'm going to borrow a word from a friend that I love (the word, not the friend; although I suppose I should point out that I love the friend as well) here, because it totally sums everything up:

AWESOMESAUCE!

(See? It's a fun word, no? Go on...say it. Say it again. And now you love it, too, right?) :)
