Are You “Just-a-Mom”?

“Mother dear, I love you so,

Your happy smiling face

Is such a joy to look at,

It makes home a lovely place”

This was a song I sang many years ago as little girl in Jr. Sunday School. Our mothers wore corsages, got a long-stemmed carnation or a little plant from the church, and had either had breakfast in bed prepared by the children with help from Father, or went out after church services to a nice place for lunch.

I am a Baby-Boomer, born in the post-World War II years between 1946 and 1956.

Hi, I’m Alex!

Usually I’d introduce myself, but if you’re reading this I’m guessing that you already know me. I’m that little boy on your TV, forever frozen in time as a 3-7 year old. Some people can tell they’re getting older when they graduate from high school and go to college. Some people can tell they’re older when they can drive. I realized I was getting older when I was replaced with a cartoon of myself, as a baby. That was how I knew I was getting old back then. Now, I can tell I’m getting even older, because the cartoon of …

This Baby Sign Language is Amazing!

by Jen de Azevedo Jen is the Marketing Director and Project Manager at the Two Little Hands office. She taught her baby sign language at a young age, and then continued with all three boys.

Shortly after my first son was born, I got a phone call from my cousin telling me they’d just found out their little girl was deaf. Of course, our family rallied around and told them we were there to support and take this …

Signing for Success

Signing Time Testimonial by: Loretta A. Signing Time was key to making my life and my kid’s lives so much better. It gave my kids the ability to communicate long before they could speak.

Here was what also happened: My kids spoke long before the other kids their age, and they kept wanting to learn more. From ages 3-7 …
