Hi.
I am new to AD. I am a student in interpreting. This is my third semester back at school after a 20 year break. I have been married for 21 years, 2 teenagers and 2 cats ( Dusty, almost 9 years old and diabetic and Missy, 2 years old).
I am really enjoying learning ASL and about Deaf culture. I have been fortunate to meet some really great Deaf students at my school. They have been so paitent and encouraging to me. I keep trying and trying.
I don't have experience in chat rooms. Its only been since I started back to school that I've started using the net.
Looking forward to making some new friends.

Hello and welcome to Alldeaf bearmom! It's always good to see when others are learning to become interpreters and having a genuine interest learning ASL, also being fortunate to interact with others who are fluent in ASL and meeting friends--sure wish you the very best and success as you continue with the course! Hope you will enjoy your stay here in AD as well!! ;)

wow 21 years of marriage...thats a long long time. you got married when i was 2
 
AJ That made me feel old. Wait. I am!!!
Most of the students in my classes are young enough to be my children. They tease me about being the mom of the class. They never make me feel left out even though I'm so much older. They are very encouraging to me when I sign. Last week for my ASL class, we had to sign a song and they were cheering for me before I got started!
