My husband bought me balloons for my birthday. Balloons that my two children have done nothing but fight over. The best one pulled loose from it's string and floated to the ceiling. We refused to get it down for days. Can't fight over something you can't reach. Finally, my husband rescued the balloon.
Emmi eyed it.
She inched closer.
She grabbed the string, pulling the balloon to her face. And SHE LICKED IT.
Then she turned to me and said, "Now it's mine!"
Um. Ems. That only works for food.

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.

Yes, that story kind of epitomizes Emmi, doesn't it? So funny. So cute. So naughty.
