300 signs and counting!

Lovey surprised the girls with the Signing Time - Series Two DVDs for Valentines Day. A valentine's present from Daddy to his girls! Rebecca was sick (hence her drab expressions and tight grip on the thermometer), but Mary-Gail b-lined straight for the DVDs and immediately began perusing through them.

The Signing Time - Series Two DVDs are more interactive than the original. Rachel has added Story Time, Counting Time, and ABC Time to her teaching signs and the girls love it! Mary-Gail likes to say, "What time is it a-Rachel?" and then Rebecca & I decide if we're going to having Story Time, Counting Time, or ABC Time. We've learned phrases ("My name is..." "What's your name?" "How are you?"); we know the rooms in our house and like saying "comfy sofa;" and Mary-Gail requests "cake" for breakfast as she loves the "Happy Birthday" Signing Time DVD. We know over 300 signs! Ah, the joys of signing, speaking, learning, and communicating!


This is what I call "Unwrapping a smile"
