AW: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU VALERIE

[Charles Butler]

The "pulling your ear" sign is from an old Pennsylvania Dutch sign of pulling your ears on your birthday. I learned it years ago at Gallaudet and thought some people might want to discuss it. It's in the dictionary already, I didn't put it there. 

The last sign in the last column is my name sign. It means crazy with a C. That's me.

Hi Charles – what an
interesting sign for „birthday“ pulling the ear downwards twice –  

   

Which signlanguage is
this taken from?  

   

You may want to mirror
each five-hand in the last sign  - smile   

   

Does it mean “more”? 

   

   

All best Stefan

  Hello Tini! 
  
  
  Yes, time certainly does fly! Who would have
  thought, back in Copenhagen in a dance studio in the 1970's when we first
  met, that you and I would be communicating by email so many years later - I
  am now age 62 …imagine that…and now you use SignWriting as well as
  DanceWriting... 
  
  
     
  
  
  Thank you for your hugs - hugs back! 
  
  
     
  
  
  Val ;-)
