He sat down with me and read through the whole thing without asking for help. Only got stuck on like two words. I've never been more proud of anything in my life. We're doing a cel
My 4 month old has decided that my shoulder is his personal toilet apparently. But like, he smiled at me for the first time today? Like a real intentional smile not the gas smiles.
Still grinning like an idiot. We've been practicing in the backyard all summer and she finally connected with one in her game. She ran the bases with the biggest smile on her face.
