My battle against being melodramatic

Today I went to visit the "Ulrich/Bailey commun". I was visiting Erin and baby Kristian along with my mom. Erin mentioned that Kristian was going to have his hearing test pretty soon. She told us that the other day she was crumpling a chip bag near his head and it got his attention, hence his hearing must be fine. Mom said she was releaved because she was worried about whether or not he could hear. She started talking about some boy at the hospital in Dauphin (Manitoba) who was deaf and attempting to communicate with him and then she started bawling. All I could think to say was: "Mom, get your shit together!"

I remember when Haaken was that age and Erica was worried about his hearing. He did not seem to be reacting to things like the dogs barking or other loud noises. His hearing was fine. When I heard about the concern, I didn't say anything but I did not think that there was anything to be worried about, especially since he seems to have noticed the clicking noises I like to do when I hold babies.

Babies do weird things to your emotions!

It is all part of the brain-washing.

Not quite sure what your Mum's regularity has to do with Kristian's hearing.
