One day that very week it seemed as if she decided that I was OK in her eyes and wanted me to know that. I got the smile I had been praying for and in my elation I even remembered to get the camera! I can proudly say that on May 9th 2009 Abigail legitimately smiled her first of many smiles and I the Mother of the YEAR got it on film! :)
Here is one of the pictures I took:
Now I find myself loving those smiles as a daily occurance. But, me being me, I want more. I'm now on a mission to get laughter. I admit that I don't know the date of her first laugh (somewhere right around 4 months) but I am learning ways to get her to laugh pretty consistantly. She loves to 'scream' in a very high pitch ALL the time :) but I'm getting more and more true laughter each day! I don't know that I have heard a more heartwarming sound in my life. What do you think?
God is GOOD!
P.S. I wonder what I will be looking for next!
