Mia is really enjoying her ASL skills. In the car, at the dinner table, wherever we are, she may spontaneously break into signing (that's signing, not singing). Sometimes she is signing what she sees (cars, dogs), other times she just seems to be practicing. Or showing off. We especially love it when she signs for us while speaking the associated word. Which brings us to today's photo. Mia looked so lovely in the pink dress she wore to church today, I brought the camera so we could take a picture in the church courtyard. As soon as we let go of her hand, she ran around the courtyard and church steps in an impromptu game of "catch me if you can." Jeff eventually caught up to her and stood her in a grassy spot for the photo. Which prompted her to point to the ground and then make the ASL sign for "grass." (You cup your hand under your chin as if you are lying in the grass.) Not exactly the shot I was looking for, but a moment worth capturing.
P.S. She is talking more too. New favorite word: Mine.
