Hi!!!

Sarah used to give high 5’s to me and Blanka whenever she was happy. She’s learned to go one step further by waving high and goodbye to anything and everything.
Every day after her nighttime bath, I’d wave goodbye to Sarah as mommy took her for bedtime and I’d clean up her tub. So for the past 8 months or so, Sarah’s seen the same movement from me night after night. One night, she decided to raise her hand and keep it up. This led to the high 5 phase. It came in real handy for all the football games we’d watch. Soon after, she learned that she could do a high 5 slap and make a noise which made her even happier. I mean, who wouldn’t like making a slapping sound with their hands?
A few weeks ago, while leaving for work, she was being held by grandpa and as I waved at her, she raised her hand and started waving back. It was pretty dang cool, but I didn’t put much weight on one wave. A week or so ago, she started doing it regularly. Bathtime high 5’s turned into waving sessions- “hi daddy”, “hi mommy”, “hi light on the ceiling”.
Sarah would see me or Blanka in the distance and she’d yell and then wave all the while having a big smile on her face. Yesterday, she looked at each ornament on the christmas tree and waved at all the ones that appealed to her. It was soooo cute.
Maybe when you see Sarah next, she’ll wave hi to you. 😉
