I was going to post about today being a surprisingly good day... about pumping 6 oz. this morning (not much for some, but a PR for me)... about forcing a grumpy, obstinate Little M to take his turn to go for a walk with me and Darling A when he wanted to stay and play at the gym with Sweet P and Baby B and then having a great time chatting with him and playing at the park after even though he hadn't believed it possible to have fun with me...about laughing and giggling with Baby B before naps...about having fun watching the kids play Wii together and seeing how cute Baby B was when he got a chance to hold a remote...about the yummy pizza a friend brought by for dinner...about a fun night out with my daughters to get Sweet P's hair cut...about watching our precious little Darling A together as HH and I marveled over her adorableness...etc.
But then, she woke up. I got her dressed in her jammies, and we came downstairs to do this post. As I sat down at the computer to feed her while posting, she paused and looked straight into my eyes. And I could tell she was actually locked onto my eyes and focused. I smiled and cooed a hello to her.
AND SHE SMILED BACK.
I am totally serious. And not at all delusional. It was beautiful and totally intentional. I mean, she was looking right into my eyes and did it immediately following my smile at her.
I know it's way early. But it's true.
And anyone who has had a baby smile at them can confirm what a Joyful Moment it is.
Especially, when it's your child.
Especially, when it's their first smile.
Especially, when you love and adore them so.
