On Sunday night, I was holding up a toy (a sun) in front of Cora and I could see that she was really watching it, so I started moving it back and forth to see if she would follow it.
I’m telling you, that little girl tracked that toy all the way from one side to the other, even turning her head back and forth to follow it. We got it on video!
I know it’s a small developmental milestone, and she’s going to have many, many more, but it’s the first thing that I’ve watched her accomplish before my eyes. And I have to say, I can’t quite remember the last time I was that excited. It’s just kind of miraculous to see her growing and changing and learning from day to day. And I was so proud that it almost outweighed my sadness at how fast she’s growing up…almost.
These conflicting emotions are going to continue for…well, forever, aren’t they???
Isn't she so smart and alert?! Now, you should tell her when the sun goes down, that's when we sleep! Love to all -Nana
ReplyDeleteYeah, no freaking kidding! I may try that...
ReplyDeleteYou make me laugh, but I can't say much I do the same thing. I did not video that one though. You guys are great. Just make sure you do all the same stuff with the next kid.
