I regularly volunteer in our church nursery and take care of the 0-2 year olds during the services. Lately, I’ve noticed that there seem to be more kids than usual who grab on to the neckline of my shirt, seemly for comfort.

Last Sunday, I was telling a friend who was in the nursery with me that I was noticing this happening more often, and she said, “They know what’s in there. They remember.” My son has never been one for grabbing my shirt or putting his hand in my shirt. I suppose that’s probably because my husband and I have been showing him the baby sign for milk since he was three or four months old. We just did it to avoid having him cry without us knowing why he was upset. Looks like that sign serves more than just one purpose.
