Did you watch the London Olympic's Opening Ceremony? We did. Rarely is Katelyn allowed to stay up past 8pm, but this was a special exception. With the ceremony occurring once every two years (if you watch the Winter Olympics too) it was a special treat to have all six of us watch the ceremony together. The night was full of commentary about the outfits, songs, flashing lights, etc. Each girl had a different favorite part.

Imagine if you could not hear the ceremony. The wonderful thing about the event is the lights and dancing are visually stimulating. Lucky for us, Katelyn's hearing aids are making a big difference and helping her understand her surroundings. Loud drums and lots of bass moved Katelyn to do lots of tribal-like dance moves. Although the photo is of her sitting on the couch, she was barely able to contain herself. She LOVED the ceremony -- well the portion she was allowed to stay up for anyway.
It was wonderful to be able to sit down as a family and experience something with all of our senses. Nights like these are the ones that make all the hard work of raising children worthwhile.
