Friends from China

We just had a wonderful visit with two of my coworkers and their daughters.  They brought us gifts for EmmaLin once again.  They are way too generous.  It was very interesting to listen to them talk to her in her native language, much like she was spoken to by her caregivers the short time that we were together.  EmmaLin could understand them and respond a little.  Everything hinges on the fact of whether she can hear you or not.  When spoken loud to, she mostly will respond.  Hopefully the ENT doctors will be able to tell us something this week when we go to meet with them.  Oh how we want her to hear more clearly, but if that is not what is meant for her, we will take a different path.  We have already started signing with her and that helps the barrier in communication for now.  That, she can always hear.  I took some pictures while my coworkers were here and then a video at the end after they had left.  Her in her dress and plastic clop, clop dress shoes.  Oh and don't forget the shopping bag, sister has to sport all of the accessories while out shopping.  Too funny.  Here's the pictures.

  1. She looks so pretty in her dress (can't see the shoes, though) :-) I am impressed with the picture from Wednesday, too, about what she can do with her dolls' hair - a future jewelry maker with all that dexterity? :-) Thanks for continuing to share - it is wonderful to see her so happy.
