Greetings everybody, from within the bosom of love. So many visitors and friends and family...so much love! I arrived a couple days ago after about a week away from Ellen and Safia. Ellen and her dad had kept me current by sending picture and video updates of Safia, but I was still astonished to see, when I saw here, how much my little girl had changed in the week of my absence. I know it to be true that babies change so much and so fast in the first few months of life, and that missing one week is just over 8% of her life, and so, yeah… a lot has happened, Dad, keep up. Anyway, she’s making all sorts of new noises and has perceptively progressed in the use of her various limbs and appendages. She’s grasping things with more purpose, and her vocalizations are much longer in duration with more consistent purity in tone, and trueness in timbre, with an acoustic richness that is quite remarkable for a person of her age. Ok, that may be a little much, but our little girl sure is growing up pretty quickly, don’tcha know.
Yesterday was a busy day with alternating moments of action and inaction; lots of hurry up and chill. Without going into too many tedious details, our day contained a trip to the Natural History Museum, a baby showing at G-Pa George’s office, a pool-side snooze-fest in the afternoon, and a long-table dinner feast with Great -Fish, fam, and friends. Us adults were up way past our bedtimes, but Safia took her naps and went to bed regardless of the action around her. Good girl.
