Tonight Audrey played with her rings on a spindle toy. She was pretty into it. At one point she picked the whole thing up and carried it off into the dining room to work on it alone. Then once all the rings were stacked, she brought it back to show me.

As I did with Freya, I marvel at her cognitive ability. The volume of language she comprehends without being able to speak. “Go get a book, Audrey,” I say. She toddles over to the book shelf. And so on. I know this is totally boilerplate mom, but, she is so freaking clever and funny and amazing and I love her!!!
