hi

Ada doesn't do a whole lot of surprising things. Or maybe I'm so used to expecting the unexpected that nothing she does seems all that surprising any more. Today, that all changed.

Ada has been babbling up a storm, lots of bubububububs and dadadadads and tttttttttts, but to date, nothing that doesn't sound like it is coming out of the mouth of a one year old. This morning, we walked into her classroom, she took a quick look around and then out of her mouth popped, "Hi". Firm and crisp, and with a little bit of attitude.

I had to look back at her to make sure she hadn't turned 13 while I was signing her in.
