Share as much or little as you'd like to about your family. I'll start.
My wife is an ASL interpreter. I call her the Queen of Unsolicited Job Offers because it feels like she frequently gets asked about applying for some job or another.
I have three kids: two boys and the youngest is a girl. My oldest son is autistic (or at least has autistic tendencies - we don't have an official diagnosis) and is developmentally delayed. One of the few worries I have is questioning whether or not he'll ever be able to live on his own when he's older.
My middle child is deaf. He has what's called microtia and atresia. In short his ears never fully developed (microtia) and he has no opening to the ear canals (atresia). He's been going to preschool at the Jean Massieu School of the Deaf learning ASL while doing some speech therapy. He uses a bone anchored hearing aid (BAHA) that allows him to hear fairly well, although it is sometimes hard to understand him when he's talking.
My daughter is little but really sassy. One of her favorite things to do is to tell me or her mom or grandma to "Go!" and leave the room so she can do something she's not supposed to.
