Next year is going to be hard. Really hard. I don't know how Emmi is going to make it without her current teacher. She has had her for the past three school years, and she loves her. When she gets hurt, sometimes her name gets called before "Mommy!" Spring Break has been horrendous, because Emmi has asked for her teacher everyday. And? Apparently, her teacher ranks among the greats such as Santa Claus...

Emmi's Story
Emmi was born with normal hearing and a genetic condition that later caused her hearing loss. At eighteen months, she was diagnosed with hearing loss. By one month later, it had progressed from severe to profound. She received her first cochlear implant on her left side shortly after her second birthday. A year and a half later, she received her second implant on the right side. Within months of the second implant, Emmi's language skills exploded. She still has trouble with announciation due to a malformation of her soft palate, but she continues to work with private speech therapists, as well as the school district.

Awwww!
Yes, not having Lisa Moore as her teacher is going to be tough on Emmi. (Hope I've got her name right: you know how I am with names.) Let's just hope she loves her next teacher as much as she does this one.
