Evelyn on Halloween
Miss Evelyn smiles when she’s awake now! It’s not just every
once in a while, either! When I smile at her, she smiles back and it’s the most
wonderful feeling in the world!
She’s also starting to bat at objects. When she sits in her
bouncer she is starting to figure out that when she makes big enough movements
that she makes the little toys attached make noise.
It’s so awesome to watch her learn! 90% of everything you’ll
ever know you learn in the first five years of life. It truly is amazing to
watch someone as they make new discoveries every day.
She’s also starting to have more of a personality. She has preferences
and everything! It’s amazing to get to know a whole new person that you
created! I created her, but she’s not me. She’s not Bryant, either. There’s
still too much to learn about her to really tell who she is.
This past week I’ve been studying for finals. I have two
tests on Monday and a paper due Friday. I also had some other classes and a
doctor’s appointment. All’s going well there.
I’m rushing in typing this because I thought the deadline
for this class was 5:30 today for some reason. I’m not really sure why that
time was in my head, but it was. I read Laura’s email at 11 and still had
several things to get done before noon.
Next semester I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays,
so I’m really excited to get to spend all day the other five days a week with
my baby.
