One of Chance's favorite new pastimes

We have added a deck onto our house.  This deck has been in the plans for years but we are just now getting it done.  It was one of those things we were going to add to our yard when we first moved in, but then Chance was diagnosed as being deaf, insurance did not pay for anything and so any money planned for our  yard went to help buy hearing aids and pay medical expenses.

It has been worth it.  Our neighbors have beautiful finished yards, we have two cochlear implants and a boy that can hear.

The other day, Chance walked into the house and said,"I love our new deck.  I like to just go lay on it and listen to the birds in the trees with my eyes shut."

Chance and his Mom enjoy a laugh on the new deck on Mother's Day
He likes to listen to the birds in the trees.   Our yard may not be perfect, but our son can hear the birds in the trees.

Life is good.

I LOVE the picture! What a payment for the delay in getting the deck. It really shows how it was ALL worth it! :) Plus, Taunya, could you look any younger? Someone might think you're his sister! :)
