We don’t need blood ties to be a family
I realized this after my baby was a month old--he developed faster than other babies.
It wasn't bragging, and I only based it on the babies I saw in the hospital--which...was probably not a good comparison considering most of them had some conditions--but the nannies said so.
He was supposed to be a month old, but he was big enough to look like a three-month. The way he moved his arms and kicking with his legs was smooth, more than a jerking motion. I was joking about him talking soon, but the sound he made was considered advanced by normal standards--whether it was human's, demon's, or druid's standards.
Rubha jokingly said it was because of her breastmilk...which might be true, who knows? But what fascinated me the most was how focused Shwa was. I heard babies couldn't see well in their early days, and at most, could only focus on people's faces in front of them. They couldn't see far yet--was what I caught.
