If you’re an observer like me, every day of our lives we notice something – despite our daily routine, there must be something about this day that didn’t happen the other day.

The other day, I invited two of my cousins out on an impromptu catch-up date since I was already in the area near where they live.

I am a deaf’s grandchild and it’s something that I’m not ashamed of. You see, my grandparents, specifically father’s side are both deaf and mute. In short, they can’t hear, therefore cannot speak.
