Sparkle's been having trouble hearing lately. I'm not really too worried about it, Lord knows we have enough other things to think about right now. But when most of the questions we ask are answered inappropriately (Me: "What do you want to eat for breakfast?" Sparkle: (Smiles sweetly...) "Ahh, I love you too Mommy!") and even when she's looking right at us it takes repeating what we say a few times for her to get it... we've started to wonder what's going on. We've waited several weeks to see if this was a phase, wondering if this was a behavioral issue or not, trying to give her ears time to heal if they had been clogged from an infection, etc. I had an appointment today to check her hearing, but she was up all night coughing and has a congested nose, so a hearing test would be inaccurate at this point *Sigh* I guess we'll just keep waiting. Pray for my patience level. I'm trying to remember that she probably isn't always just ignoring me, but we've had our moments over the past several days!
She'll miss preschool again today. We paid for the entire month, then proceeded to leave for two and a half weeks. Now with the Thanksgiving holiday... she'll have attended 3 of the 11 school days this month. There's nothing like getting your money's worth out of something!

I don't know if this helps, but Alex is definitely in an "ignoring" phase lately. Plus, she is in her own little fantasy world a lot. Unless the word "candy" is spoken, she would appear to be completely deaf.
