You are having a bit of a breakthrough in communication. Your signing is getting faster and more consistent, and it's possible you're saying "more" (which comes out as "mo!"). Tonight at dinner you pointed to the multi colored daisies on mom's desk. You like the flowers. So I signed to you asking if you wanted a "flower" (which you know the sign for). You answered with a big dramatic nod of the head for "yes", and then signed for flower. SO I brought you the flowers. We did this many times, each time with me giving you fewer cues. Eventually, i asked what you wanted, and you signed for flower.
You're alo doing a very good job using "yes" to reply in the affirmative for things, though ususally you do it when we've done what you want, notin response to a question, but that's coming along, too.
It's so nice to be able to communicate with you, and I can see how happy yu are in being able to get what you want more easily by signing. I think you're getting that things and ideas have sign symbols, and you can use them to communicate.
I'm going to teach you the sign for "beer" next.
I loved back yard camping with you.
