I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Go Owen with his signing self!!! Excellent!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oh, good god. My back is spasming, and I'm sure it's from changing my tire. Sometimes it's better to be a helpless flower and let the strong, strapping menfolk do the hard work.

Fortunately I have muscle relaxers left from my last episode of Stubborn Back. I'ma take one and go to bed. With any luck, it'll relax and go away overnight.

WAY COOL OWEN!

That's so cool that you're signing to him. I have some friends of mine with a boy about to turn one at the end of this month and they've been signing to him. I don't think he's signed back to them yet, but they've said he seems to understand a lot of the signs made to him.

I love that you tagged me Trudes, but that attribution properly belongs to Denis Leary.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Feel better, Teppy!

What would make me feel better is reading a post in Beep Me that we have a TICKYBOX!!! Maybe when I wake up, she will have made her debut.

And thanks, Fred.

Our wings are not tired.

Soothing virtual backrubs to you Teppy. And I agree that a morning PTB arrival post would be very sweet.

Go Owen (and mom)! One of my GF's growing up was the oldest of 6 kids and their parents were deaf. I'll have to ask her this summer if the kids picked up signing at the same time they learned to speak. I'll tell you though, it was the noisiest house you can imagine. When I would sleep over the kids would shout to each other all night.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Ha! Guess they didn't have someone yelling at them to "Be Quiet!"

Teppy, I hope the muscle relaxers do their job. I'm all liberated and shit, but I still think I'd call AAA.

I swear I was *this* close to giving up. It's really hard to tell if you're getting through. Persistence pays off.

That is so cool Cashmere. Just like any language I have forgotten most of the signing I knew as a kid from lack of use. When I see my friend's parents I fall to the old standby of speaking slowly and mouthing well mixed with a few signs. They are a whole lot better at reading lips than I am at signing, but they are like virtual parents to me and always praise my attempts.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That is very cool, Cashmere!
