She walks. She takes many steps in a row with her arms held up high on either side of her like a stick-up, falls down, does not skip a beat, scrunches her face in determination, stands back up in a sort of lean forward, tripod, then bend up slowly kind of way, wobbles, walks more, falls again, repeat, repeat, repeat. She does this many times over and then remembers where she is and that there are other people in the room, and that they are probably watching her..and then she looks up, smiles, and laughes hysterically, and the laughter makes her fall down again and she begins the process again.The caregivers at daycare said that yesterday she was stopped playing, got up, slowly walked all across the room, through the swinging gate into their dining area, all the way to the table, scooted out her chair, sat in it and started tapping on the table for food.That's our girl.

Hi Jesse! It's Jessica,Marc's daughter. I'm so excited to see this page. I was just telling Mary yesterday that I'm so excited for you guys to come down in December because I can't wait to meet Vera.
I loved your video and the pictures; Vera reminds me so very much of Mia; when you wrote "Pajamas, Cheerios, and a Book..." it would have been a good night for Mia, too. Watching Vera starting to walk in the video made me think, "Aw, I can't believe that's already gone!" Now Mia is running around repeating almost everything I say. She continuously amazes me.
Anyways, just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed your page. It inspires me to do something like this because I, too, have beautiful baby books sitting empty save for a page or two!
Can't wait to see you all :)
Jessica
