Bill: For three weeks, kids can't see very much. So you got to hold them, talk to them, and all that. And then their vision goes from here, and it starts for three weeks to three months, it just gets out. And so she almost doesn't have time to laugh, she never cries, she just soaks things up. And I think, God, if my mind had work like that, I'd be so happy. She just a sponge of taking everything in, and it's a hoot.
