Googsmom: You crack me up:) Like you’d really hang me on your wall. I like the button idea though. I will get on that.

jana francis: Thanks, for everything – you know Lucy digs you too!

heathersebi: It’s a regional Woman of the Year, but let’s pretend it’s global. I don’t
I don’t think they’d be interested in BigAC’s pedicures (wink wink)

JacksMommy: Hey, I get older every year. I am 34 now, though Lucy is convinced I am 24. Let’s let Lucy win that one.

tamthompson74: Well it was YOUR nomination my dear, so THANK YOU! I’ll be sending you a little something.

simply_lori: Thanks I get stressed when MY make-up gal is not the one making me up, but they did a good job – I look so bronzed LOL

melwk: well you won’t have to look hard. I am on the cover and in the table of contents and then some more through my article

tardis_mom: Thanks!

Michael Calanan: Thanks Mike and thanks for the little “gift” – love following you on Twitter. I’ll see you at lunch January 30!

Stacey: Ah thanks!

michele123: You mean I am the Woman of the Year on TVs across the country? WOOT!

rookie131: Thank you~

Karen Putz / DeafMom: Thanks so much!

mistinchad: She hasn’t written me back either… yet

Katie: You DON’T want him doing your make-up… I promise

Tiffany: I had just come back from Mexico, but it was mostly rainy there. I think it is bronzer – I was worried it was too much, but I think they have to compensate for lighting

Katie (again): There are a lot of local resources, usually, no matter where you live. Community College level classes, community education classes, university, check to see if there is a Deaf Center near you. Signing Naturally is a good one.

Brandee Leafty: Thank you Brandee! I am glad you found us and that we have made a difference for you. Stick around long enough and you will see I am a pretty regular mom, who is often a multi-tasking mess – but it’s fun to watch LOL. I do appreciate you telling others about Signing Time. THANKS!

Wynona: Thanks – I spent the last 3 days in my pj’s just so I stay in touch with my crunchiness LOL

Oh, and dressed up or granola, you look great either way.

Signing Time has made my daughters life so much better, though she is not deaf, she watches it every day! Thank you so much for your story and Congrats! Signing Time has made my husbands and my life so much easier! I just wanted to let you know how you have touched our life… well, you have a lot! Again, THANK YOU! I recommend Signing Time to everyone I meet, but of course they already know and have been watching it themselves! You are an amazing person, and the world is better with you and your family in it!! THANKS!!!!

Can your or someone do a post (on this blog or on one of the other blogs that two little hands productions has) on good resources for parents who want to learn more than what the signing time videos have to offer?

I’ve really enjoyed signing with my kids but feel that in order to keep them signing, I’m going to have to always know more than they do to keep them using it. I love it and so do they. I want to learn this language………

I’ve looked up what textbooks they use at BYU for their beginning courses but am still not sure if those are the best books to learn without the guide of an instructor.

Alpha Teach Yourself American Sign Language in 24 Hours

Signing Naturally Student Workbook: Level 1, Expanded Edition

Any suggestions?

You are coming to visit my family on the 26th of December in Utah. We are all so excited for our kids to meet you (in your orange sweater I presume else how will the know you!) ! My little Penny is going to squeal with excitement when she sees you! My 6 year old son is excited too, though he’s kinda silly sometimes and will probably just smile and say hello rather sheepishly. We can’t wait! Thank you for being amazing and reaching out to everyone who loves you and your work.

Congratulations!
