In the clip, Mara’s father is seen using sign language to talk with his granddaughter.

The caption reads: “Just a hearing girl and her deaf grandpa.”

Seated on the floor, the grandfather uses sign language to communicate with the baby girl lying in a bassinet.

Captions in the video explain the conversation between them.

He signs: “Did you sleep well? Oh! You hiccuped!”

He continues: “Did you sleep well? What did you dream about?”

He then counts the baby’s toes, saying: “You have five toes on each foot, ten in total.”

Addressing his daughter, who is filming, he adds: “She is very observant. She doesn’t want to miss anything; she’s always looking around.”

“When it comes to sights and sounds, she catches everything.”

The video ends with the grandfather planting a loving kiss on his granddaughter.

It’s clear that not only is the grandfather attentive, but he also cherishes every moment with his granddaughter.

This beautiful snippet of a loving family interaction is something we all need to see more of. The world could certainly use more moments like these!
