Olive has had a lot of consecutive days of being very disagreeable. I guess we can expect to always just cycle in an out of this kind of thing, but gosh, today it got to be too much. Presently she's spending an hour in her room.

Olive watched Wall-E with Chris the other night, and when it was over she dreamily said, "That was a wonderful show." Then, Chris told her an abbreviated version of The Wizard of Oz the other morning, and when he was done she said - again, so dreamily - "That story was beautiful."

I can't believe what a strong swimmer she is. Her confidence is really impressive, but also really scary for me. Still, I think we'd be remiss if we didn't put her in the swim program here in Boulder.
