A Tribute to My Mom (by Alex)

Guest blog by Signing Time star Alex Brown, son of Signing Time co-creator, Emilie Brown

One time, when I was on the trampoline, my mother came out to check on me. I was practicing my front flips. She had walked out of the door right as I had over-rotated and smacked my face on the bar around the trampoline. I had just started to cry when I saw my mother right beside me. She was calling to my dad to get the car and take me to the ER. My mother was next to me the whole car ride, comforting me.

When we got there, we had to wait a couple of hours before we could get a plastic surgeon. The whole time, no matter how tedious it was to wait, she was with me making the pain go away. I was glad to have her there. Then she was up half the night with me when I got stitches. I had bitten through my lip. She has always been there for me to comfort me.

Whenever she can help me out, she seizes the opportunity. Not only does she help me, but she goes the extra mile. When I ask for a glass of water, she takes the time to turn on the water, makes sure it tastes good, walks across the kitchen to the freezer and puts ice in it. When I ask for help on my homework, she helps me and then explains it to me. When I ask for a scrambled egg, she makes me a gourmet omelet with sourdough bread and bacon. My mother is the best.

 

 

Alex and Emilie were recently interviewed together for the 10-year anniversary of Signing Time.
