Conversations With Adia - Sutherland Soapbox

Conversations With Adia 03/13/2009

Jeff and I spent many months signing to Judah, Salem and Adia as babies and they all picked it up after a few months. Well okay, Salem only did it when he felt like it, but the other two use(d) it all the time. It takes 2 or 3 months of consistently signing to them before they finally produce that first sign. It's pretty exciting when they FINALLY do sign back.

Here is a video of Adia showing off her communication skills asking to do her favorite thing . . . eat and eat some more! She is 16 months old and has been signing for about 3 months. If you've never seen baby sign in action, it's pretty fun to watch. Here she is, enjoy! (Sorry about the blurry spots in the video. It may have had something to do with little boys, a hot tub and our camera! At least it still works.)

How was
your day?

We've found that the answer to this ostensibly mundane question is pretty important.

Our aspiration for our corner of the web is to join in the much larger circle of ideas and influence occurring around us. We come across remarkable stuff in our travels, we'd like to remark on it. "Ideas need to move to turn into better ideas."*

We hope the stuff contained herein, which has made our day far brighter, inspires a better day for you as well.

"These thoughts my dear friend, are many of them crude & hasty, and if I were merely ambitious of acquiring some reputation in philosophy, I ought to keep them by me till corrected by time or farther experience. But since even short hints . . . being communicated, have often times had good effect . . . It being of more importance that knowledge should increase, than that your friend should be thought an accurate philosopher."
- Dr. Franklin (Benjamin)
