In the clip Mara’s dad uses sign language to communicate with his granddaughter.

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

Granddad is sitting on the floor, using sign to communicate with the baby girl, who’s in a bassinet.

Captions highlight just what granddad is saying to the baby.

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

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

Granddad then counts the baby’s toes and tells her: “You have five toes, ten toes total.”

He then tells his daughter, who’s filming: “She is very observant. She doesn’t want to miss anything, she’s always looking around at her surroundings.”

“When it comes to sounds and visuals, she doesn’t miss anything.”
