American Sign Language



Every other Saturday morning, our family gathers for a group American Sign Language class all centered around Blu! 


Not only is Blu learning signs for animals, shapes, colors, emotions, objects, and people - so is his family and largest support network!  


Though Blu learns a bit of sign in school, he has genuinely excelled since we began this tradition last winter.
  

A couple of weeks ago after class, I was outside playing with Blu in a pool full of different colored balls and practicing some signs. 


He blew me away by putting together his first FULL sentence!  He signed, "I want yellow ball!"  Wow!
