Susana,
Yesterday you were four weeks old. On Saturday, we can officially start counting your age in months (1) instead of weeks or days. It’s amazing how much you have grown and changed even in such a short time.
Sometimes it seems like you were just born yesterday—and I still think of myself as having “just had a baby.” At other times, those early days of adjustment (you getting used to us and the world—and us getting used to you and to being parents) and all the sleepless days and nights seem hazy, like something we dreamed. Most days, it seems that you–and the cuddly, bright-eyed, curious baby you have become—have always been a part of our lives.

Susana JillBorn: August 8, 20073:43 a.m.Samsung Medical CenterShe wasn’t expected until early September, but somehow decided that seeing Seoul in August was a good idea.Just after she was born, one of the nurses told me: “Your daughter was looking at the sky.”At the time, I thought it was such a beautiful and mystical thing to say (if a bit strange). She then clarified that Susana was born sunny-side up with her face toward the ceiling, which made the birth more difficult.I think I prefer the first interpretation. I hope that she will always be looking at the sky.I’ll be back soon with updates.
