Two weeks ago tomorrow, Claire had emergency surgery in Amman. She is not supposed to lift Emerson for a month, so I came to Amman to help her and to play with Emerson. Emerson has grown so much since Christmas, with four teeth now, pulling up and walking around things while holding on, crawling wherever she wants to go, and smiling and belly laughing. She is adorable! Claire is adorable too, and healing nicely, thank goodness!
