Signing Progress - WOW!

Ben's signing has REALLY taken off recently. It has clicked that what he signs he gets... and in turn is learning very quickly what the sign is for the things he wants. And then uses it at a later time to request it! We are so thrilled and proud of him. He is now consistently signing 19 signs without prompting. Those signs are (and from this list you can tell what motivates him):
1. TV
2. Up
3. More
4. Shoes
5. Open
6. Close
7. Sit
8. Tickle
9. Bath
10. Apples
11. Glue
12. Scissors
13. Finished
14. Color
15. Bubbles
16. Flower
17. Roll
18. Jump
19. Book

Excellent work, Ben! Based on your list, you and Gracie would have a good time together! Lots of things in common!

Keep up the good work! And... good job to you, too, Amy! Clearly, this is a result of your effort at home and not just school!
