Signs

I am in Trader Joe's in Chicago, looking for supplies for the hotel room, water, fruit, that sorta thing so if we gets to hankering for a midnight snack or something, we don't have to buy the 18.00/gulp bottle of water.  Anyway,  while the wife is shopping I am trying to teach my daughter the colors.

I would point to a blue box and do the sign for blue.  Point to a red box and do the sign for red, that sorta thing.  So lady sees me and gets all excited and asks if I am deaf.  To which I say no and shake my head.  So she asks if the baby is deaf, to which I say no and shake my head.  Then she says, "I am deaf." Which you could tell as soon as she talked but never mind that.  So I ask her if she knows the sign for pink, becuase I didn't know that one.  I remembered it was like purple but different.  So she shows me.

Then unbeliveably she thanks me for teaching my daughter signs and smiles one of the most genuine smiles I've ever seen.  This got me thinking, perhaps, it is a good thing to teach your kids signs, even when they're able to speak and it also serves to remind me, things are going pretty good for team me.
