She also has the alert trait, but in the sense that she can't sleep through the night - she still has not slept through the night more than 2 days in a row - her senses don't turn off and she is taking in things while she sleeps. She will sleep for a few hours, play or unwind for a few and then sleep again. she does notice changes, but because her verbal skills are not as advanced as Js she will express them in another way. She does point out similarities betweeen semingly unsimilar things - her observational skills are on a different plane. For example, my RLGF has a soap dispenser that has fish on it and when we were at the doctor she had a similar bottle, but one with ivy. When E saw it, she said , "fish" referring back to the same bottle, but the doctor thought she was seeing fish....
She too, knows no rules for behavior and will scream, cry, yell at any given moment for no reason whatsoever, she does more exploring than j ever did and will climb to the top of a store display, just to get a look. She doesn't touch as much as jessica does with strangers, but she has to be so close to me that I don't know where her body ends and mine begins.
