Learning through the heat

I have not been the best at updating my blog now that the hot weather has rolled in and chased us from our home. We finally succumb to the high humidity and ordered an air conditioner, which is being installed as I type. In a few hours cold dry air will be blowing through my home. The heat has been an easy excuse as to why I have not done much housework or cooking. I am using these last few hazy hours to come up with a new reason and I know Elodie’s wellbeing will justify my reasoning to put these domestic obligations off.

The simple truth is Elodie is so laid back and does not keep me from much. This morning the doll spent an hour playing on her Baby Einstein play mat. She adores the thing! She is so focused on her goal of making use of her hands. Watching her learn to manipulate her hands to match the gaze of her eyes is astounding. Her constant determination teaches me a few lessons in patience. It is no surprise why she is so exhausted by the end of the day.
