I'm really not a "baby person." I love my children, and love doing things with them, but playing with babies is just not something I'm natural at, so spending extra intentional time with Oliver to help with his development is a challenge for me. Elsa, however, is wonderful at it. I've talked to her and shown her how to show him things, help him hold toys, and talk to him about the toys or whatever. I often ask her to sit with him and play by him, but every few days I find her camped out next to him all on her own, "reading" to him or showing him whatever she has been playing with.
She is such a blessing and an encouragement to me.
