Fireworks, Chuck E Cheese, Sign Language, Metroparks, Beach.


had a nice time on the 4th. saw fireworks at lakewood park with amira.

wed we took her to a deaf chat at the coffee shop. she's learning english, spanish, arabic, and sign language, but the ASL wasn't catching on, and i suspected it was because she hadn't made the connection yet that this is a way of talking. she copies signs, but doesn't know how to use them. i figured she needed to see deaf people talking to make the connection. and i was right. she started signing for real (more water) the very next day!

thurs we went to chuck e cheese, and i've still got the damn music from one of the rides stuck in my head; a bouncy rock/zydeco riff. not as bad as having the soundtrack to liquid sky stuck in my head, but still not pleasant.

yesterday, sunday, we went to the beach. it was her first time, and she had a blast.
