[MUSIC] Now I'd like to talk about one of my own experiences. I grew up using C sign system, because this was a small town, very few deaf people and we all use C. I had a deaf brother, he used C as well, he was older than me. So I felt like that was the sign that we all used, and so we used that until I was about 17 when I was talking to my mom. Now my parents and my hearing brother, they're all hearing, and we signed some, finger spelled some. But my mother had more ability to use C, so we could communicate a lot better. So I asked my mama if I could go visit the residential school, here in Texas. As you can imagine, that's a big difference compared to this rural small town and when I got there, sure enough, it was a huge difference. I see people using ASL, and it was intimidating, you know, I was also shy. I went home, and I thought, man, what am I going to do? But I decided I needed to go there, because that's where the deaf culture was, I identified as deaf, so I went. And funny story. So immediately I went in and fell in love with this person who was using ASL. She used facial expressions, just the way she produced the language, it's beautiful, and she would criticize my signing system, C. She's like, no, no, not C, and I didn't understand why it was a problem. And then as time went by, I realised that ASL is the language, her family was a deaf family and mine was hearing except for my older brother who was deaf and a cousin. And at my home we signed English and she is used to ASL. So, as time went on we continued to speak and stuff and we got married, we had two children, both were hearing. And so, I would sign to them, and they signed back and developed that language. So that means that their first language is American Sign Language, and their second would be English, just the same as me. So, it's very neat that we have the same language.
