Just a quick thought this morning...
I am infatuated with her hands. I absolutely love tenderly cupping her entire hand inside mine. They're so soft and so chubby. They look like little starfish moving about on the ends of her marshmallow arms.
And has there ever been a happier baby? Is it normal for a baby to smile with her whole body? Every morning I go in to get her and every single time she's already awake, playing quietly, cooing and kicking. She looks up at me when I lean over and say, "Goodmorning Lily!". She smiles so big her eyes turn into little crescent moons and her whole body seems to grin along with her little toothless mouth. Can you tell I'm in love?
