Here's a little list of some of the things that I love about you.
It's these very things that help me keep my perspective and remind me of just how lucky I am to be your mum.
I love:
- When you bury your face in my face or my arm (or the nearest body part to you) like a puppy trying to maul a stuffed toy. I have to be careful now that you're armed with two bottom teeth!
- When you are sitting and you bend forward and plant your face on the floor, on purpose, like you are trying to perfect some weird yoga posture. You seem really content there.
- How you've recently discovered how to shake your head from side to side and you do this whenever you please and let me join in and we take turns.
- The pride you have when attempting to stand unsupported and the way you throw your arms up in the air and backwards after getting your balance and laugh to yourself before toppling over.
- How you grunt when you creep along the floor. You seem like you're working really hard and I really shouldn't laugh at you but I can't help myself.
- The way you giggle so hard when you find something really funny, like mummy sneezing or when daddy sings Giddy-up Horsey to you.
- The way you play with my fingers while you drink your bottle.
- The look of determination on your face when you see a tower than needs toppling.
- The funny humming sound that sometimes escapes your mouth when you are in the in between world of wakefulness and sleep.
- How you have learnt to place your blocks through a hole and to throw a toy after watching mummy. When you try to throw something you hold it high above your head, expecting it to jump out of your hand. When it doesn't you shake your hands wildly until your grips loosens. It's the sweetest thing!
- Your 'happy face' which consists of you squinting your eyes and scrunching up your nose and is occasionally accompanied by a snort.
