All about my inane ideas

Thursday, February 13, 2014


Today I'll write about my nieces. I haven’t really known them for very long, so I have less experience with their awesomeness than with other family members', but man, their awesomeness is sssoooooooooo monumental that it’s conspicuous. 

B is the sweetest thing on two legs. She is so free with smiles, and so willing to approach people, and come into contact. She is not anxious. She will make friends easily. She is open and spontaneous in her emotional communication. She loves stories, and remembers them well. Her memory in general is amazing. She is comfortable communicating in at least 2 languages. She yearns for knowledge, and will happily listen to lengthy explanations about complex issues, and then ask follow-up questions. She's a thinker. She has a clear, personal sense of aesthetics that drives her wardrobe decisions. Ha. 

Z, meanwhile, has a singularity of focus that I truly find astonishing. She will take on tasks that require fine-grained, meticulous movements, and pursue them until they are complete. Things I never would expect she could do, she does. And enjoys it. She has inner determination. She is tough. She is very aware of others' emotions, and is considerate of them. She is calm, mostly. She does not externalize her emotions as easily as her sister, but she communicates them in subtle, meaningful ways. She loves dancing and will sometimes spontaneously begin to sway and twirl, she's so graceful.

Their awesomeness as a unit should also be mentioned. Their amazing sync. They sound alike, and when they speak or sing or yell or move in unison, it’s like a single superawesome extrapowerful entity. Their love of and attunement to each other is wonderful.
