Good morning, Christmas Eve ✨
This is a quiet check-in for the hearing parents of DHH kids.
Before the day gets louder.
Before the rooms fill up.
Before the conversations speed up.
Take a breath.
Today, remember to:
Turn the captions on.
Face your child when you speak.
Check their batteries and their energy.
Plan for listening breaks - quiet moments count.
Ask them gently,
“Can you hear okay?”
“Do you need a break?”
“Do you feel included right now?”
Sometimes what our DHH kids need most isn’t fixing the noise - it’s knowing someone notices when it’s a lot.
And parents, if you’re already feeling unsure or stretched, I see you too.
You’re learning in real time.
Your effort matters more than perfection.
May today be about connection, not pressure.
One small check-in can change everything.
You’ve got this 💕A silver lining? You might not have to be as quiet as parents of hearing kids do when arranging the presents under the tree 🙌🏽🤪
