My favourite time of the day

Snuggling with you while you sleep every afternoon, and ever so often turn around with a sigh and put your head on my shoulder. Sometimes, if I'm lucky, you also smile and laugh in your sleep. 
How I'd love to know what you dream of!

A hug and a kiss

...on demand is one of the benefits of having a baby. [From: 'If Animals Kissed Good Night', by Ann Whitford Paul & David Walker] Our almost-21-month old is turning into a compulsive hugger, and comes at you with arms spread wide if you ask her for one. She is also the best kisser-away of hurts. If she even so much as sees an old scar, a healed cut, or even an almost-faded-away bruise, she'll point to it and say "OH-ohhh", and proceed to press her stretched-tight lips to it, and go 'ummmmmmaaaaaaa'. There! You're all good!

My 'my-child-is-a-genius' moment

So, a few days ago, you and I were sitting together - I read, while you scribbled with assorted crayons and sketch pens on your drawing pad. (Also, I looked up every few minutes to make sure you weren't eating any of the crayons. Of course, I had to fish out a few chewed pieces!) You must've called me to see something, and I casually asked you to draw a circle, as I often do. And you moved your pen in a circular, oval-ish shape, as you often do. Then, I asked you to draw a triangle - not expecting that you actually would - or even could - draw one! A month ago, you wrote '3' when I asked you to. In the photo on this post, the 3 in yellow is yours, and I wrote the one in red after you'd written it first. I knew then that you knew counting till 5, and could also tell me accurately how many things (up to 5) of one kind there were in front of you.

I do!

I quit my job. And not only did I quit my job, I also quit working full-time. Nine years at Discovery, and -- excuse the bad pun -- but, what made me truly discover what I want in life is just the last six months. And what I want in life is to spend every minute that I can with our wonderful baby daughter, who at 21 months and 13 days, is the most interesting person I know! Of course, things will be tough, money will be short, and chasing clients while freelancing will be a nightmare! But, one look at that face, and it's ALL worth it for the joy of being with this amazing little person, and helping shape the amazing woman she'll grow up to be!
