ASL sign for APPLE
Laura (My Smart Hands) in Just Between Us - 2 comments - posted on Nov 30th, 2011Foods are great starter signs for babies. Babies are often very motivated to learn food signs, especially foods they love. It is also easy to teach food signs because normally during mealtimes you have your baby in a high chair; this allows for great face-to-face interaction.

Happy Birthday to my Little Miracle
Number Crunching Momma in For the love of parenting, Just Between Us - 2 comments - posted on Nov 28th, 2011Right now my little one is enjoying her morning at preschool, but 4 years ago today it was a scary time for J and I.

How would this little one make it through such struggles she would face in the upcoming weeks? What complications would … Continue reading
