Bath Please!

I was in the middle of fixing dinner tonight when Antalya crawled up to me and started signing "bath". She just learned the sign about a week ago, and is the first sign she knows that doesn't have to do with eating. I was so proud of her! How could I not stop what I was doing and go put her in the bath tub for a few minutes? I am so excited that she is started to communicate more.

That's so awesome that she's learning and using so many signs! I'd have stopped everything and put her right in the bath as a reward, too! That's so cute.

that's very exciting!

I remember when Kayla first started signing eat I would give her cheerios anytime she did it -just to reinforce it :)

Good work Sunny! Signing takes lots of persistance and patience. Will you send me your email address? Mine is jkthomas5@gmail.com. I have a friend who has lots of questions for you. In case you don't recognize my married name it's Hermana Young from the MTC.
