A Smile

Just a short note tonight. Alexander gave his daddy a great big smile yesterday (September 18) when he saw him, and we’re counting it as Alex’s first smile. Yes, he’s had grins that appeared spontaneously, but this was the first one that seemed to respond to seeing his dad. Hopefully, we’ll be seeing more of those! Dad has started several little games with the boys that they love – like wiggling their little arms quickly back and forth, tracing big circles with their hands in the air, and giving them fish face. We’ll try to catch some video of that soon.

Grandma Myrtle should be arriving back in California tomorrow night (Monday), and we are looking forward to having her with us again. We feel very grateful to have her assistance with our young babes. Puck starts back to work tomorrow too, and classes at UCDavis begin later this week. I’ll be teaching Spanish I in the afternoon. It is always a joy to see just how far students advance in the Spanish I courses in just a few weeks.
