There's one part in every day when he'll wake from a nap (usually lying face down across my torso, head on the hollow of my shoulder) and his eyes will open really wide and we'll just smile at one another for a while.
Best part of my day.

You know they are born knowing what faces are, and that a face is another person like them?
Someone spent some time with newly born infants; he discovered that they would mimic his facial expressions. That's apparently wired in.
I remember the sweetness of that first real smile from each of them.

Good to stop by. I had a good head clearing, got past health issues with my father and am half way through the agency process, so I'm in a much better place these days.

You have no idea. It's like hitting the baby lottery. He wakes up smiling and whispering to me in the morning. The other day he was in his jumper and fell asleep right as he made his last half leap.

Same to you, bybee, and a good many of my friends here. But it's been best for me and I'll likely continue it more than not for a while. Still sorting out a few things. It's good to say hello and to return so many kindnesses I wasn't here to see.

One of the joys of parenthood (or just person-hood for all of that) is watching a young child take in information.

BTW, Mrs. Barbarian thinks he's "adorable." She likes the giraffe suit best.
