Two milestones

I think Zoe has achieved mobility. (It's the beginning of the end!) She isn't crawling yet, but she is doing this backwards scooting thing. We were at her grandmother's yesterday, and I noticed she moved a little bit while we were playing on the floor. Later that night, we were playing some more at home. She moved 2-3 feet a few times, off her play blanket. So far, only going backwards. She is trying to get onto her knees but hasn't figured it out yet. She's also sleeping horribly at night. I think the two things might be related.

I've also finished my book revisions. The book was 535 pages. It's now 379. I'm going to start submitting again after Christmas and see if I get any good feedback. Either way, I'm beyond ready to start on my next project. I have the beginning of one novella and ideas for two more. It was interesting, when I finished entering all the revisions this last time, I typed "The End" on the last page. I'd never before had that impulse, so maybe I really am done. God, I hope so.
