From swimming to crawling to cruising to walking…

Babies repeat our evolutionary movements: the fetus in utero live in water like fish. Couple months after birth, they become reptilian-like, where their entire trunk and legs are in contact with the ground when they move. Then they become amphibian-like and begin to crawl on legs. Once they can do attached walking, they become primate-like, until finally they stand upright like a fully erect human being. 500 million years of evolution in one year. That’s impressive.

Utensils

Demi-tasse spoon and bowls.

I bought the spoons here: Sur La Table

I used to use these IKEA side bowls until one broke and IKEA stopped producing them. I’ve since moved on to something much better: Corelle dessert bowls – they stack beautifully, feel like glass, but will not break. I ordered mine here at Amazon and one order came with 6 bowls.

Two sets of twins

I met a mother with TWO sets of boy/girl twins, 12 years old and 3 month old. There was something about her that was very generous – a big heart and big belly – the energy of a real Earth Mother!
