Ever had one of those days that started out on such a good note that it seemed you could do no wrong then you proceeded to screw everything up?

I so look forward to the end of my days
When at last I can lay myself to rest.
In darkness troubles are so few
And if allowed peace comes to you.

No conflict for the calmed spirit.
Muscles relaxed without burdens.
Nothing new for the mind.
And plenty, plenty of time.

The Day’s journey beats us up.
In the end there is no reward
Aside from the comforting thought
That you burden no one more.

Baby Signs November 13, 2005 10:38 am

Posted by djuggler in : Daily Life , add a comment

I think Evan is nearing that age where he can start communicating through sign (amz). He effective has started using his own sign for "pick me up" which is a natural gesture of simultaneously raising his arms above his head and holding them there. As long as we reinforce the sign by picking him up when he does it, the sign will stick.

Cathy and I prefer to teach ASL over made up signs but are flexible enough to adapt to Evan’s own choices. The trick is to pick a single sign, like banana, and use it until the child learns it then add another sign. Trying to teach too many signs at once will only lead to frustration. With Amy it was very nice to know that she wasn’t just hungry but that she wanted a banana or apple juice before she could speak.

We highly recommend Baby Signs (official site - and it’s using ColdFusion! albeit with the horrid Fusebox methodology).
