Baby’s sign language moment with deaf grandparents goes viral; family hopes to raise awareness

A St. Augustine mother hoped the now-viral moment between her baby and her parents who are deaf would inspire other parents to sign their kids up for sign language classes.

My kids dad is deaf and I taught my 2 children sign language before they were even 1 yr old...it's AMAZING how fast they learn at that age. I wanted them to be able to communicate not only with him but I wanted them to be able to tell me what they wanted or needed without all that noisy fuss lil children tend to do like the pointing with an "uh uh uh" or stomping and crying or such. And to my astonishment it was super easy to teach them and they were talking before they could even speak....not only was I astonished but so was everyone we encountered who found out or saw us communicating thru sign language....made for a more peaceful and happy terrible 2's than most families endure...not to mention it was super cool to have (2) 1 or 1 1/2 yr Olds chatting away in sign language.. !!!!!
