Alas, the other day Sophie and I missed the handoff with our trusty camera and it bumped to the floor, landing not-very-squarely on its lens. The poor thing seems to be broken beyond repair. Needless to say, I won't be able to post any photos for the next little while. We'll have to rely on the written word.
Right now I am relying on silence. Sophie is asleep for about another 1/2 hour or so. She is so much fun to be around today, but she chatters nonstop. I love to hear what is going on in her head which is lucky, because I pretty much get a play-by-play account. And it is interesting what she remembers and comments on: Daniela's scrape from last summer, the parakeets she recently fed in Colorado, the London Eye, the fact that I told her when she was two that she could have an M&M if she went potty and why can't she have one now when she just went. Wow. She has also recently learned what the Eiffel Tower looks like, and it is amazing how many images of the Eiffel Tower exist in our everyday world here in Modesto. I know this because I have every one pointed out to me as we go along. "Look, Mommy!" You know how it goes. Why is the Eiffel Tower painted on the window of that mattress store? I don't know, but I wouldn't trade knowing it is there for all the croissants in Paris!
More soon and peace to you.
