Happiness


My daughter LOVES being outside. She can be a fussy, unsettled mess, but as soon as we take her outdoors she calms, relaxes, and stares in fascination at the world around her. She is mesmerized by the chirping of birds, the rustling of trees in the wind, the colorful beauty of flowers, the warmth of sunshine on her face, and the peacefulness of nature. I love taking her out on walks around our neighborhood and seeing her excited reaction to the outside world. Her signature reaction is a "hooo-HOOO!" sound, somewhat resembling the call of an excited monkey - ha; as she flaps her arms and kicks her legs with relentless passion and vigor. She is beautiful...and I love showing her the beauty of the outdoors, and teaching her all about her world. Just wait till she can walk - watch out! : )
