Hey, Buddy, you got your ears on?

A dinner conversation at our house...

[Talking]

Weston: What?

[More talking]

Weston: What?

Daddy: Weston, do you have your ears on?

Weston (at the top of his voice): WELL, THEY'RE TURNED ON BUT I STILL CAN'T HEAR!!

And we laughed--but part of me wanted to cry, because I know the truth behind that statement and how frustrating it must be for him. On Tuesday, Weston had his hearing retested, and he still didn't pass. That's three pure-tone hearing tests that haven't turned out well for him. So, we're off to see an ENT doctor in about a week and try to get this little problem solved. We'll keep you posted.
