 What would be the best way to write the head resting on the hands? </div><div> </div><div>My second question is about the final sign, SQUIRREL.  I need the palms together in such a way that the bent index and middle fingers touch fingertips.  If the hands were oriented so that the palms were sideways to the body, that wouldn't be a problem; but I need the left hand palm-up and the right hand palm-down.  The sign as you see it is the best I felt I could do, but the fingertips really don't look right.  Does anyone else have a better suggestion? </div><div> </div><div>Thanks, </div><div>KJ<br><br></div><hr> <a
