Wonder

Ana is definitely reminding me of the joy in wonder. She will being crying and then suddenly stop to look at her hand. She will just open and close her hand for several minutes. Or she will look around the room with eyes wide open taking it all in. And then she might just start laughing or "talking" about what she sees. It is such a delight to see her trying to figure things out and just marveling at the world around her.


"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."-Albert Einstein


Here is Ana with her many stuffed animals.
