    The good thing is that Sydney is in German bilingual so she's starting to pick it up and I can talk to her. So far it's very limited, but she's catching on really quick. Also, now we can talk about Jared and Daddy and they don't know what we're saying. Muwahahahaha! :)

    Like your own secret language lol

    Hi shazzy
    Hi adam

    Subway sounds like a good idea right now, missing breakfast and lunch makes for one quite hungry bear :D

    My kids are actually learning a bit of sign language in school. Sydney can do the whole alphabet and a few simple words. It's amazing how quickly they catch on.

    At this point I think my poor old brain couldn't handle any more info. ;)

    Hey Bear.

    I am actually finding more and more people that are deaf in our area.

    It's looks fun and complicated to sign, just the right kind of challenge.

    Might just be the Amazing Race in me talking though.

    I learned the alphabet in school and still know most of it, but he has to go super slow for me to understand.

    Had a friend with twins, and apparently its common for little ones to develop "twinspeak"... where the two assign nonsense words to real things, actions, etc...

    Which all little kids do, but usually we don't know what it is... my mother said I used to b!tch and moan about wanting a "zanits" but they could never figure it out. Eventually some things you do figure out...

    Well.. I guess the problem with twins, at least hers, was that it was elevated. Now TWO kids know the secret language and so they can use nonsensical communication to plan and scheme... even when they were starting to speak english and form sentences. She said she started getting really paranoid one day when she discovered the kids were doing this... like little velociraptors planning the next attack.

    Alty, Bear and Adam are speaking German and Adam then speaked Dutch.. all talking about sign language...

    I know creole (mother language in Mauritius, usually full of those "beuatiful rose tinted words), french, second learned language, english, third language, mandarin, forth language, but very little..

    Ah, I know a secret type of language that is used for people of a different handicap : blind people; the Braille Codes! :p

    Ok, it would be nice to learn some German sometime...

    Off to bed I go... tiring day... Cya all! :)
