Just a thought on the language barrier, if you can, try using an signs you know for words in English. I met a woman during this whole journey with Zeke who knows an amazing amount of different languages, and she is teaching them to others using Sign language. The reason is if you sign "water" while you say "water", even if he doesnt understand water or can't speak it yet, he can sign it to you when/if he needs/wants it. .. not sure if that is clear, but I will tell you that having a language barrier with a deaf child has been frustrating at times, and I am so thankful we have signs that he understands, even when he hasn't learned the meaning of the word yet. Just my two cents. I am so excited for you guys and will continue to pray for this transition!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08608945204670104268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2118172817511729466.post-13842015463929035832010-03-15T14:49:04.101-04:002010-03-15T14:49:04.101-04:00Great post, Sarah!
