I thought it might be fun to photograph some of the milestones Norah and Avril are passing, those rites of passage throughout their childhoods, so that readers, particularly family members, can share in them, too. This picture shows Norah waiting in line to purchase "those twisty cinnamon thingies" from Taco Bell. She's been ordering and paying for items more and more often since she's proven that she can handle it. Don't worry, Dad. When she's standing in line like this, so far away from where I am, I watch her like a hawk until she is back sitting with us again.
