Today Clara and D had a hilarious time playing peek-a-boo. Their game went in cycles-- first peek-a-boo: quiet. Second peek-a-boo: smile. Third peek-a-boo: giant grin. Fourth peek-a-boo: laughter!
In addition to peek-a-boo, Clara had a great time playing with her toys today, especially Tiny Tubby, Mr. Green Bean, and Bunny. So much excitement led to some wild leg-kicks. Legs are for kicking, after all!
Sometimes she sits quietly and I smile at her, and she grins back. It completely melts my heart.
Clara has had a fussy evening. She thinks sleep is for sissies and wants no part of it. This has been the pattern lately. My own mother had a bit of experience with this...I guess the sins of my youth are revisited upon me now in motherhood.
I'm glad you're around! I looked every few months to see if you were. Some time ago someone blogged a question: "who was the blogger who inspired you to start your blog?" I said you, because when I first discovered blogs, I found your story very moving. I'm thrilled you had a healthy, happy girl. Wonderful news!
