Dear SignWriting List! 
 
I have been so blessed lately - all kinds of wonderful gifts have been sent 
to me from around the world... 
 
A gift from Albuquerque, New Mexico....Teachers Cecilia Flood and Lorraine 
Crespin, and some of the students learning SignWriting there...sent me 
"thank you notes" written in SignWriting!! They even included some 
wonderful photographs, showing the students demonstrating what they 
wrote....It was a dream come true and I will treasure it - Many thanks to 
everyone in Albuquerque :-) 
 
A gift from Germany ...Teacher Stefan Wohrmann just sent me a "thank you 
note" written in German Sign Language, and the name signs of his students 
and fellow teachers - really wonderful! Many thanks to you and all your 
students, Stefan! 
 
And a wonderful gift from Peru - I received a hand-crocheted sweater from 
Lidia, a Deaf woman in Lima, Peru, who is learning SignWriting with Juliana 
Palmer. The sweater is absolutely beautiful, and it fits me! It is a bright 
turquoise, and Lidia was so thoughtful to crochet in a "non-wool" yarn...I 
will definitely wear it....Many thanks to Lidia and everyone in Peru!! 
 
Smile :-)))) 
 
Have a great day everyone -
