Bionic ears

Today was a pretty stressful day.
There was snow all the way to work and so the kids went to "Nana day care".
Work was very stressful and draining.
The ride home was pouring slushy, sleety rain.
I got to Nana and Papa's house late and the kids had already eaten and taken baths. When I walked in the door, my sister called out, "Hi, Web." I heard everyone, but saw no one. Everyone was in the master bedroom or master bath.

But from somewhere deep in the house, Cam started shouting, "TEE TEE" "TEE TEE"...

Cameron is always the one that sees us first. Jake will take his sweet time greeting us at day care, sometimes he is completely unphased at the sights or sounds of his moms, but Cameron hears us before she sees us and shouts the minute she does either. We get a loud, cheerful "KAY-TEE!!!" or "TEE TEE!!!" I thought that was the height of her "excited voice", but the other day I was at day care when my sister arrived, and the intensity of the greeting was at least tripled: "MOMMY!!!"

Jake and Mac are having some ear trouble that is affecting both of their hearing capabilities right now, but Cam's ears make up for the deficits. She's like eagle ears. It's very cute.
