Quick updates

Lately I have had the "poor pitiful me" "miss my friends" blues. It's the little things that Max Milligan does that can pull me out of any funk, espiecially when it's a new trick. It's funny when she does something that is imitating me, but when she initiates something... it just blows my mind. For instance, this morning Max Milligan dropped her bottle. I looked over at her and she was signing "milk". Like I said, she has imitated me, but this was her- knowing that she had dropped her bottle and she was asking me for milk. She signed it again tonight around the time we give her her bedtime bottle. CRAZY. The other thing she did was "patty cake, roll em up roll em up." Let me explaing. She claps (at everything) and lately when I am doing patty cake, she will "roll em up roll em up" with me. This evening while we were at dinner, Max Milligan (on her own) started clapping and then started rolling her arms around. It was so funny and so great that Daniel and I were both there to see her. She is just the thing to make me smile and pull me out of my funk.
