While at the zoo, I was handing my camera to Tía, and we dropped it. The whole lens cover and shutter snapped off, and was dented a bit. Amazingly, it still takes photos. Even more amazing, Kevin had been wanting to buy me a new, higher quality camera, and just had ordered one the day before!
The next day, I was handing my camera to Aviana. We almost replicated the accident, but she grabbed hold of the cord in the nick of time.
I said, “Nice catch!”
She said, ” I caught it better than Tía did!”

Brielle will pant, and point to the door. She wants to go outside to see Roscoe. Pretty amazing huh?
************************************************
Aviana came up to me, hugged my knees, sighed and said, “I dist need some mudder time!”
************************************************
When I picked up my new glasses, we parked at the library across the street and walked over. Aviana made everyone in the place laugh when she said, out of nowhere, “Mama, I might get tired walking back to the library. I think you might have to carry me.”

Brielle likes nothing better than to “organize” my tupperware drawer. She will even pull out a container, find the matching lid, set the lid on top of the container, and hand it to me. I think this is simply wonderful!
***********************************************
Kevin was settling in to read to Aviana.
“Brown Bear, Brown Bear, by Bill Martin, Jr. Do you know what else he wrote?”
Thoughtful pause by Aviana. “Chitta, Chitta Boom A-Boom!”
We’re in awe! She’s right, you know.
***********************************************
To see her read Brown Bear, Brown Bear, go here.

While having a little snuggle, Aviana cupped my face with her hands, and said, “Oh Mama, I’m so dwad Dod dave you to me!”
