Abbie had another terrific day: in the afternoon we went to Merrifield Gardens, where we walked around flowers, shrubberies and trees for a long time. Abbie was mesmerized by the colors and textures of everything she saw. She ate a Sage leaf and Stevia leaf (not at the same time, yuck) and picked a few more flowers for her little garden, including a Bouganvillea, which she was *really* excited about. We had so much fun! Abigail just loves the outdoors, which pleases me to no end, since I do too. I am looking forward to more days in the sun. In the afternoon, her honorary Uncle Sean came over to visit. It was so good to see him again, but of course there is a sad note since he is here getting everything set up for the move to Colorado: it makes it all so final... It seems so hard to believe that another chapter of life is ending. So many people come and go, it's hard to say goodbye... Abbie took an immediate liking to Sean, she voluntarily crawled over to him to check him out and be picked up by him. And of course, Sean was absolutely adorable with
her -- he is really good with babies -- and got along famously with the little one. They played, he helped her to get on her feet (which is sure to win immediate approval), talked to her, and she chirped away. It had been a long time since she last saw him, so she definitely did not remember him. How time flies! I am really hoping that we will get another chance to spend some more time with Sean this week before he takes off for good. And Abbie would love to see him again too, I know.
