Savta the Servant

Another week is upon us! You are eleven days old and are getting more beautiful every day. Apparently you smiling at such a young age is astounding because we have gotten lots of comments about how brilliant you are going to be. Or maybe it just means that you will be a total Daddy's girl, since you save most of those smiles for him. Mommy gets the "I'm really hungry!" cry mostly.

From Thursday to Sunday of this past weekend, your Savta (that's Hebrew for Grandma) and Uncle Jordan were here visiting. I am sorry to say that their time here seemed to be when I was most emotionally out-of-whack, so they got to see me at my crying best. But things seem to be a bit better now and I have to say that I am really starting to have less pain and be more excited about getting up and going. Your daddy's mom is very much a servant, never demanding or selfish, always looking for ways to help. I think she cleaned almost our entire house while she was here. It is hard for me to ask for help of others, so she just did the little things that she thought would be nice for us. She even cleaned the shower in OUR bathroom. Jordan kept himself busy with Joe Dog and the Wii. He was determined to break all the high scores that Bo had set up so far, and now Bo is determined to go back and beat them all again... Ahh, brothers.

So here you are with Savta and Jordan!
