This sign means a lot to me as Little Fingers is my first BABY, I understand the challenges some face trying to conceive, I work with infants and toddlers who need medical attention, and now Lil is saying and signing BABY - which is just the icing on the cake.
It's amazing how even the littlest donation can go such a long way.
How great! We signed with our children when they were pre-verbal. It is so cool to see ways that signing can give children a voice. Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteMarch of dimes is an organization very near and dear to my heart as well. It breaks my heart to know 2 babies aren't here and as a mom I cant imagine the heartache. My daughter, Gabrielle was born 2 month early weighing 2.11. I was very blessed that she continued to thrive and after a monthbin the NICU she was able to come home. She is a healthy little girl abduction I know that the March of Dimes and the contributions made stayed a huge role in helping her. Important very sorry to the Jack family and if I lived locally I would want to walk with them. I also taught my daughter basic signs and still use some because her vocabulary isn't large (she is almost 2) and it amazes me how she picks it up. I wish I knew more!I found you through the fb hop and feel blessed to have landed on your site!

Yes Kate - signing is great :)
ReplyDeleteMy 12 month old is beginning to sign back and I just LOVE it! It makes me feel so connected to her. And I truly believe all the sign language we worked on with my toddler resulted in how verbal she is today. Great post!!
