By / 2 minutes of reading

Dear Signing Time Friends, Our family sincerely thanks you for what you have done for us. Your DVDs, board books, and flashcards have been such a blessing in our lives. For six years we tried to adopt from overseas. During that time, we lost three children we were supposed to bring home and were on a major emotional roller coaster.

Signing Time LIVE in Minnesota!

By / 3 minutes of reading

I can’t believe that I was crazy enough to put together another Signing Time Foundation benefit concert. Last year I pulled it together in just one month. That’s right, one month.
