Sophia has done very well the past two days at her temporary day care place. She is with Rachel, a patron from the bookmobile I've gotten to know, and her 5-year-old daughter Talia. Talia is taking this baby-sitting gig very seriously and wants to help feed, change diapers and entertain Sophia all day long. Her mom isn't letting her do all those things, of course, but at least she's not jealous that there is a new baby around the house! This morning when I dropped Sophia off she gave Rachel a big smile so I feel pretty good about leaving here there; it made me feel as if she enjoys it.
The other major thing for us the past few days has been continued swim lessons. Today I got to get in the pool with Paul and Sophia which was great fun. It's hard to see her expressions from far away, and her face changes from shocked to excited to concerned with all sorts of other emotions as well. She really is enjoying the water. We'll have to make a regular practice of going to the pool once this class is over! Today was the first day she wore the swimsuit that Grandma Darla
bought her, so we took pictures to post for Grandma to see. Thanks Grandma!
