HI! Missy, Congrats! She looks so lovely! Agreed with you! I did with my 2 daughters when they were born. For years, They have no problem learning sign languages and speaking.
Enjoy being a mother again ;)
I agree. Did the same to our KODA kids. Why wait?? And I do get asked those questions. Because my kids are older, questions are now more like when did I teach them signs? Since birth I say, and I get shocked responses. :)
Funny, I was watching Safari while you were signing and noticed that she appeared to be looking at the computer screen, possibly watching her mommy talk. So she is learning ASL even tho she is not looking directly at you! :)
I sign to my 5 months old! Been doing it since she was born! Thanks for sharing! You look great!!! Miss you!
Congrats on new baby, and growing fast and big wow. I awaited to heard from so long for watching it!! !! now finally sharing for watching on it!!
Thank you for sharing about signing baby!
Loved your discussion on how we communicate with our babies. Safari looks so adorable while you explain to the viewers about how we talk with our little ones.
I have 3 boys. When they born, we sign to them since growing up. By the way, glad to see you back here in your vlog. Looking forward to seeing your next vlogs. Aloha!!

Wow Safari look like Dave so much! Cute baby! Amen what you said. I do to my two deaf children. I learned something different between girl and boy expressive signs. Girl expressive signs more earlier than boy. Interested!
Yes, I agreed. I m deaf myself. i had three hearing children. I used to sign ASL with my children when they were babies. My aunt and cousin were shocked that my kids fluent ASL as early become interpreter.
Missy…… My hearing sister does teach sign language to her hearing son since birth. Baby sign are more common than you think. There a lot of diversity of people who can hear very well do use it to their hearing babies more than anyone who thinks it is only deaf people.
Just keep an open mind there are good people out there to understand the aspects of Sign communication….
Congratulations on your newest child in your family household. Keep up the good work Missy……
Ahem…. I do still get people’s questionaires about my kids if they’ll signing and when did they started. All I did tell them, since they birth and signing with anything what you signs! My first kid is deaf and knew a lot of words in books and signs when she was 5 month old now she becomes so smart than my time. Next my kid is hard of hearing, now 2 years old, I still signing to him. He signs to everyone in store or resturant or everywhere… people were so amazing at him, like yesterday I took him to the beach. One of mothers was so staring at us because she wanted her kid to learn ASL. I start teaching them in ASL and we had a good time at the beach! Way to go, Missy and Congrats with your new additional kid :)
Hey Missy,
I feel like I know you. I watch you in all of my school videos learning ASL/INT. You are wonderful and I love your stories. I am an actress and director and have made a living making tv commercials and film. I am a true fan of “Missy’s View.” It is helping me so much with my voicing skills and I feel like I am getting a little “magazine” article, too. Your insights and topics are very fun! Thanks so much for doing these.
Looking forward to many, many more!
Your fan,
Dawn
