These lyrics have been running through my head all week.
We have been teaching our son some sign language via "Baby Signing Time" to help him communicate certain things to us even before he starts speaking real words and it's working! The songs that are interspersed are so catchy that they are even stuck in Nathan's head, and he's only heard the songs a few times!
I especially love this song because even more than how it talks about asking a child to show us a sign, it plays at the strings of my heart in how much I love being my boy's mama. I find myself singing it to him throughout the day and it reminds me of how precious this time with him is and the beauty of motherhood and it's many labors of love.
"How are you doing little one, my little one, my little one
I'd like to know what's on your mind
Our days together, time together, you and me, our one on one,
These are the times that make me smile
You make me smile
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you're thinking of me
Tell me all about the things you're thinking
Day and night, both day and night.
Tell me that your happy
And you love it when we're laughing
Tell me more, oh tell me more, show me a sign
Show me a sign, show me a sign
Every day you grow up more
And teach me more
About what I'm here for
And every day I love you more,
I love you more, I love you!
Tell me that you love
Tell me that you're thinking of me
Tell me all about the things you're thinking
Day and night, both day and night
Tell me that you're happy,
And you love it when we're laughing
Tell me more, oh tell me more, show me a sign"
