Anyone who knows Keagan knows that she talks....a lot....a lot....a lot. She doesn't stop talking until she asleep. However, her new thing is sign language. Not American Sign language, Keagan Sign Language. So, the majority of the time I don't know what she is trying to tell me. She knows a handful of real sign language words, such as: girl, thank you, please, tree, mom, dad, beautiful. When she tries to have a conversation with me--well, it can be difficult because she makes up her own signs. Sometimes I can figure out what she is saying, other times, not so much.
We were walking home one day after picking Easton up from school and she was having a Keagan Sign Language day. It was SO QUIET. And usually in Keagan's presence it is not quiet. On the way home she told me a story of a girl planting a tree, or at least that is what I think she was telling me.
She always keeps us on our toes.

She is one cool girl.
My story to add to that. When they were here the other day, Easton hollered at her, "Keagan, stop it! I don't know what you're saying!" I poked my head around the corner and said, "What's going on?" He said, "She keeps doing sign language to me and I don't know what she's saying!" I said, "Keagan, show me." She did all these wild hand motions. I said, "Oh, she said, 'Easton, you are the most wonderful, greatest brother in the world.'" He said, "Keagan, is that what you said?" She demurely nodded her head. He said, "Okay." So funny!
