Sign Language

One thing about being a family of four and having a car that only seats five is that going places with more than one other person means taking two cars. The other day we went to a Thai restaurant for dinner with Grammie and Grampie and had to stop at a gas station on the way so both cars could get filled up.

While the cars were getting filled up, J was signing the alphabet to R, who was riding with Grammie and Grampie.

Grampie asked R what J was signing and she said, "Daddy's saying I can have a surprise."

(Surprise is the word we use to bribe her to finish dinner sometimes, and it usually means a dessert of some sort, which she doesn't get often but with Easter she's had a few opportunities to eat lately).
