Morning Faces
Dearest Nat,
What I like most in the morning is waking up to your many funny faces. You are so expressive in the morning. You will treat me like a pillow, put your head on my stomach, play with my belly button, crawling all over me and talk to yourself when I pretend to be still asleep. Once I open my eyes, you will start showing me your funny faces and then I will shower you with many ticklish kisses and make you laugh.
I can't describe how happy I am to see you growing up as a very happy and jovial child. You love to be cuddled and kissed. You love to crawl into my lap just to be cuddled for a while before crawling out to continue with your other activities. You show us your love for us by kissing and hugging us.
What amuses us most is the way you laugh recently. We don't know where you pick this up from but you will sometimes cover your mouth with one hand when you laugh. I guess you find it funny too. You are really growing up fast. You are 16 months old now and from a needy baby, you have grown to become a playful toddler, with your own mind about things.
I love you so much and I'll always remember every heart-warming morning we spent together.
The best thing to wake up to - your morning faces
Love,
Mommy
