98 stripes done. I really wanted to finish the first 2 balls last night- do you see how little is left? But at around 11:30 I just got too zonked. I couldn’t do it. I gave up and went to bed. Hopefully tonight’s progress will delve into the 2 new balls!

p.s. Jakob waved for the first time today! We were at my LYS and the owner and some of the staff waved and said “bye bye” as we were leaving, and Jakob waved back! Then later he did it to a stranger too. It was the first time he’d even ever tried, and I almost started bawling in the store, I was so shocked. :}
