Jessie is trying to learn to wink. When I wink at her, she laughs and SQUEEZES both eyes shut! It is so funny to see her try to wink.

The daycare boss told us today that she is very smart, and can tell that we read to her and work with her at home. Truth be told, Jessie MAKES us read to her. She brings us books, or pitches a fit at the "library" (the stack of books on the buffet), until we get 3 or 4. She then goes to the recliner and pats the seat (very hard) until one of us comes and sits with the books, and pulls her up into her lap.

She has also learned to say "Bless You!" when you sneeze. Except it comes out more like "Bess You!"
