Loop

Well, here we are at the end of, yet another, road. This is a little bit of a sad end, however. Ava's babysitter for the last 9 months (April) had her last day this past week. :( Ava and April have come a very long way. At the beginning, Ava was very shy with her and would cry when I left for work. Now, Ava runs to her with big hugs while she waves and says "bye bye" to me on my way out! She talks about April everyday. For the past 1 or 2 months, Ava's been saying "Loop pool" or "Loop fly Lala" or "Loop park." We eventually figured out that "Loop" is April!! Now, at bedtime when I talk to Ava about her day, she tells me all about what she and Loop did. And when I ask her who's coming to see her, she says Loop! :) It's pretty darn cute.

April was so wonderful with Ava, and she went far beyond anything we expected from a babysitter. She was so attentive and kept Ava's mind guessing. She taught her so much. She took such wonderful and loving care of my Ava, and she did it perfectly! We are so appreciative of her, and she will be greatly missed.
Loop, Ava loves you, and she is lucky to have had someone so wonderful to care for her these past months! Thank you for everything you are!!
