Haiku + Speak



Talking without sound
Sweet little hands in motion
Comprehension cue


Today's haiku is dedicated to our sweet little Sophie.
For a while now we have been using the signs "eat" and "more" when feeding the babes, in hopes of getting them to communicate to us when they are hungry. Well, I'd seen bits of Sophia using these signs, but never so sure of them as yesterday when she clearly used "eat" and "more", and Ray saw it too!! And she's using them a lot now that she knows it really works (and she can get more food as a reward!!). It is so cool to see her little hands come together to show us her intent. A very neat milestone...
