I'm tired of negativity. I'm tired of feeling crappy. I want to help my kiddos... and they love when I sign to them.
I spent 3 weeks researching to gloss a simple song (Singing In the Rain) for my autistic 4 y/o, because she still uses sign when she's frustrated, and she loved that we could "sing" it together.
This time, I want a special lullaby that she knows and loves.
I chose "All Through The Night", but trying to find an ASL dictionary online that has some of the synonyms for the more archaic words is almost impossible. (Really? Nothing for "vigil" or "watch"? Really??)
So, I come to you, Oh Most Knowledgeable of Internet Personae, to help provide me with simple words/signs to gloss this beautiful lullaby.
Here's the original:
All Through The Night
Sleep, my child, and peace attend thee
All through the night
Guardian angels, God will send thee
All through the night
Soft the drowsy hours are creeping
Hill and vale, in slumber steeping
I my loving vigil keeping
All through the night
