Make a Note

When I post pictures later, you'll see that today we went to the doctor with Evangeline's great-grandparents. We also went to the store and ran some general errands around Asheville. Whilst in the grocery store, I made a note to myself to make a note about how almost everyone we encounter has the same comment about Evangeline: "She's so observant." I'm really surprised how many people say it. Today I heard it at least three times: from a patient-in-waiting at the doctor, a 20-something guy shopping for produce, and a woman standing by the canned artichokes. when Evangeline is older and begging me to tell her what she was like when she was a baby, I guess my answer will be "observant." She'll probably find this answer boring.

  1. And it seems as if she has been observant from day one---(or at least day 5 when I first got to see her.)
    We think she's brilliant by nature! :)

  2. It's OK, because Aunt Beth will fill in the blanks with how she was sooooooooooo anticipated and well-loved, how we delighted in her every milestone, how she turned each adult in our family straight to mush with nary more than a glance. :) (Aaaannnnnnd, depending on when she asks, she'll probably find THAT boring, too. Remind me to wait until she's 17 to tell her, so I can avoid the eye-rolling "Auuuunnnnt Beeeeeeeeeetttttttthhhhh," and accompanying big sigh.)
