The bond with the two girls gets stronger and stronger. Lily is still the more assertive personality and certainly the most creative. But Anna watches Lily's every move and is gaining confidence. She even at times takes a "big sister" role, especially when watching out for Lily's well-being.
Anna's English language skills continue to amaze us. She can carry on a conversation without missing a beat. She is also showing a knack for solving challenges such as puzzles and games. She is very observant and curious and not patient with Mommy or Daddy if we aren't quick to explain something or answer questions.
Lily is starting to show an interest in being fashionable. She likes to pick out her clothes and shoes and likes things with a bit of flair. She gestures flamboyantly at times when she is making a point, and likes to sit in her car seat, legs crossed, with her big round sun glasses perched on her nose.
