Smiles

Elliott has been smiling so much lately. I started noticing his smiles when he was about one month old. They might have been just gas, but I believed they were on purpose and just for me. Now I am sure though, his smiles are purposeful and a reaction to pure joy. He smiles when his eyes focus on my face. He smiles when I lay him in his crib and I turn the knob on his mobile to make his "guys" turn. He smiles at my mom and my dad when they come into the room and say hi to him. He smiles at his bird sticker on the wall by his changing table and the Snoopy doll who leans down from the shelf above it. Sometimes when he smiles he makes a laughing sound. There is nothing that can brighten a room, warm my heart, and make me feel true love like the smile on the face of a happy baby. My happy baby.
