ENT Report

Yesterday after visiting with the ENT we scheduled for Jacob to get tubes November 9. The visit went well and was like anywhere you have to wait with a toddler: "No. Come here. Put that down. Stop. Don't kick that. Don't touch. Pick that up. Don't lick that...." Jacob had just woke up from his nap and was raring to go so he was quite a toot while waiting. Please keep him and us in your prayers. Seven months ago if someone had asked me if I would be gung-ho tubes I would have said no way. Amazing how 5 ear infections, doctor visits and antibiotics in 6 months can change all that!

Be in prayer for Brancent too. He stayed home from work today because he wasn't feeling good. He is suppose to leave tomorrow morning for the Deaf Men's Conference in Dallas. He looks forward to it every year so we are praying hard he gets better tonight and is still able to go.

I have been wanting to post this story for awhile...today's the day. (wow that sounded dramatic!)

Last month my mom decided to bake some chocolate chip cookies (Thanks mom!). She made a few small ones that had very little chocolate and no nuts for Jacob. He was quite proud that he had his own "Jacob sized" cookie and nibbled on it as he played. He was in the front bedroom at my mom's house and she said "all of the sudden he stopped playing and looked off like he was remembering something. He took off running down the hall, so I grabbed my phone and followed him. When I got into the living room this is what I saw."He was sitting in the living room feeding his cookie to none other than Cookie Monster! Cracked me up that he made that connection just from seeing cookie monster eat cookies, and sometimes the letter of the day, on Sesame Street. Crazy how much they learn!
