My Seussical Life for 2004 March 30

Samuel is doing really well with his sign language. He seems to have undergone a language explosion; he is learning one or two signs a day, and mostly needs to see a sign demonstrated only once in order to remember it. He discovered a new use of his signing one day when he signed "baby" and pointed to Atticus. Atticus was incensed that his baby brother would taunt him in such a way, and Samuel, in return, was amused at the powers of communication. Teasing in our little family is no longer a one way action.
