Tonight as Aria was winding down, she was bopping and clapping along to music on the alarm-clock radio (that she turned on), and we started reminiscing about all the things that she's learned since she's been born. She learned to roll over, and then she learned to sit, and to stand, and to walk and is now having rudimentary conversations with us. ("Want some apple sauce, little girl?" "No.")
She was watching us, still clapping and bopping and Deb said, "She's just trying to figure out the world." I added, directed at right at our daughter: "It never ends -- you'll keep trying your whole life, and there's always new things." She looked at me, stopping her music appreciation for a moment, and said: "All done!"
Her timing is remarkable.

She's right, you know! Sometimes we just have to stop and celebrate the new thing we learned, and put off the thought of all the things we don't know yet for tomorrow.
