So, look at
this cutie.
See what she’s
doing? That’s baby sign language. It’s the use of manual signing allowing
infants and toddlers to communicate emotions, desires, and objects before they
can speak, encouraging the development of gestures according to Wikipedia.
She's signing, "More, more."
We don’t know
if she’s deaf or not, but she’s definitely signing for her daddy to continue beatboxing. If she’s not deaf, she digs the rhythm. If she’s deaf, he’s close enough, she probably
can feel the beat against her like loud music.
We take
tykes for granted when they so young, thinking they can’t truly communicate until
a “certain” age when their minds are sponges uncluttered by the crap we adults
let drag us down.
It doesn’t
say, but it makes me wonder if Clara
Daly’s folks’d taught her baby signing, thereby, enhancing her thirst to
learn to carry it on, making her an angel on Earth.
Words leave
me when Joey throws these vids on my FB page, so I’m going to bid you guys good
night, and be good to each other.
