Floating Conversation
At the beach last week on vacation, Daddy got to spend an hour or so holding onto an inflatable boat while Anna floated inside and enjoyed the Gulf. Anna talked to Daddy constantly and uninterrupted the entire time, and Daddy enjoyed every minute of it. With an older brother who is also a proficient talker, Daddy doesn’t get many opportunities to let Anna’s talking ability shine. It was a marvelous and memorable experience, and one that Daddy will cherish forever.
Sand and Water
Last year, Ben would not walk on the beach. This year, he and Anna literally rolled in the sand. It was a terrific improvement, and one that will hopefully lead to ever more enjoyable vacations.
Also, both Ben and Anna learned that they could float in the water (wearing floaties) without holding on to Mommy or Daddy. A bit nerve-wracking for the parents, but a giant step forward for our kiddos.
