A retired US basketball professional Rex Chapman posted a heartwarming video of a deaf father interacting with his newborn daughter in sign language. The video has been viewed millions of times and has left the netizens in awe. In the 41-second video clip, the father can be seen holding the baby in his arms and trying to commute while the newborn stares at him. However, it is still not known who the person is or where is he from.

'You're a beautiful girl'

One internet user translated the sign language, “Daddy. I'm your daddy. I love you. You're a beautiful girl. Your eyes are such a beautiful color, bright green! Just beautiful! What a cute smile! I love you. You're a cutie. That's a warm blanket. I love you. I love you. You're beautiful. Cute”. Another Twitterati commented, “Love does not need sound. It is an embedded app, in our DNA, and needs no adapters, translators or API. Activated as needed!”.

He starts by saying he's her daddy (thumb to forehead), then calls her beautiful (fingers cascading in front of his face), then cute (pointer and middle finger to chin), in case anyone is interested

The soul knows far more than any grown adult could ever dream of. When we are first born and if we're lucky to die old is the only time we gain access to that knowledge. But no one can understand the souls language at those points.
