We are visiting Los Angeles and it is Mother’s Day. Naomi, Simone, and I are off on an urban expedition.
Above Simone (3) is sending a video letter to her friend Tanner (4) and about halfway through the video, Simone grapples with the idea that perhaps Tanner is actually inside the camera. (Sound on)
Naomi is 8 months and Simone is 3. We are back in the hotel room. They are exploring the toy instruments we bought from a vendor on the sidewalk. They are creating an ad hoc performance. Road trips come with lots of free entertainment.
These might be the first steps that Naomi ever took. It happened so fast that we really are not sure of the exact date. Surely I am not impartial, but gosh, I am just in awe of Naomi’s ease and grace climbing things, holding things, and (now)..strutting her stuff.
