Sign a Day Project: Thank You

Due to Katelyn's hearing impairment, my family is going to be required to learn sign language at an accelerated pace. Friends & family have been asking how they can help, and the best thing to do is learn basic signs with us so Kate will feel more connected to our daily lives.

Learning sign language is a huge undertaking for all of us. In order to help friends and family (and work on the signs ourselves), I have decided to do a "Sign-A-Day" Project. This will hold me accountable to continue to learn new signs, and it should help friends and family learn the signs that we are working on daily with Katelyn.

Today's Sign -- Thank You

Use your right hand and touch your chin. Keep your hand flat and extend it away from your body towards the person you wish to thank, as if you were blowing a kiss (without puckering your lips).
