Wind, crunching, and rumbles

David went for a bike ride this weekend. At first the only thing he could hear was the wind rushing by as he rode. When he took a break he put on his lapel microphone. This is a little microphone that plugs into the processor to allow him to get a more localized sound. Once that was on, he rode again. This time he was able to hear the crunching of his tires on the rock path. That was a new sound :)

We had an enormous thunderstorm yesterday, and we shut everything down and just watched and listened. The rumble of thunder is a beautiful, relaxing sound (unless you're three...) He heard the low rumbles, the loud cracks, and of course, we saw the lightning bolts.

I went to turn cartoons on for Jaime and when I came back out, he had fallen asleep just listening. ♥

I love the new sounds, the amazement, the wonder as David hears more and more things.
